    The Osmosis Lab SHS Lacrosse Monster #2 Dates performed: 10/10/11 and 10/11/11 Introduction: The purpose of the laboratory investigation was to observe the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. In this lab‚ dialysis tubing was used to represent the semi-permeable cell membrane. Three dialysis tubes were prepared with 5% sucrose solution and were soaked in solutions of different concentrations. The diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane is called osmosis. When

    temperature)‚ and 70°C. This investigation tested the hypothesis: The rate of osmosis will increase as the temperature increases 2x2x2cm cubes of potato were weighed and then placed into 100mL of 10% NaCl solutions for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes the cubes were again weighed to determine the amount of mass that they lost/gained and thus get an indication of the rate of osmosis. The results collected showed that the rate of osmosis was highest in the 70°C solution and lowest in the 20°C solution. From

    Investigation into finding out the Effect of the effect of osmosis In potato cells Introduction I am doing an experiment to find out the effect that osmosis has on Water solution and a Sugar solution. Osmosis is a process which water moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. I am going to record my results to see if osmosis occurs in water solution of sugar solution. Apparatus In this experiment I would need; - 1) 3 test tube 2)

    Investigate osmosis between potato tissue and sugar solutions. Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato core of a given size 10mm Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solutions molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially permeable

    Osmosis And Diffusion

    • 942 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent across a selectively permeable membrane that occurs in response to differences in solute concentrations (Allen and Harper 2014).Osmosis can fall under the category of passive transport which does not require energy. With osmosis being a type of diffusion it is viewed as molecules moving from a high concentration to a low concentration. To further explain if there is a low water concentration‚ high amounts of solutes will be present. Water will most likely move

    How is Osmosis Affected By the Concentration PLANNING Independent Variable The independent variable in this experiment is the thing that I will be changing in the experiment. This is the range of concentrations that have been obtained by diluting the original 1M solution of Sucrose. This is therefore the only thing that is going to be altered as I am investigating how different percentage of water molecules affects the weight of the the potato thus the rate and direction of osmosis. Dependant

    Transport of Solute in Solvent through Osmosis or Diffusion Due to Different Concentration Gradients Passing Through a Semi-permeable Membrane between Cell and Cells Environment Bio 101 Objective: The objective is to simulate passive transport: diffusion of solutes and osmosis of water through a semipermeable membrane (dialysis tubing). The experiment will show how molecules in solution move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration in the attempt to reach homeostasis

    Osmosis Coursework How does the amount of sugar in a water solution affect the process of Osmosis in potatoes? Introduction In this experiment‚ I will be looking to investigate the effect of varying concentration of a sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. The potato chips were cut to size‚ then added to a water based sugar solution‚ where the variable was the amount of sugar added. The potato chips were cut to size by a potato
