Osmosis investigation Aim: To investigate how sugar concentration affects the mass or size of a potato and find out the sugar solution. Introduction: Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane form a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration until the concentration on both sides is equal. This means that osmosis is like diffusion involving water molecules. Osmosis occurs across a partially permeable membrane‚ with holes

Diffusion of IT in health care is generally low (varying‚ however‚ with the application and setting) but surveys indicate that providers plan to increase their investments. Drivers of investment in IT include the promise

The aim of this experiment was to calculate the concentration of an unknown solution of Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) by titrating it with Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) and to identify any possible sources of error. A colour change from pink to yellow signified the end of each individual titre as the NaOH had been neutralised. Experimental: Method: Firstly two solutions were prepared to show the colour of the Phenol Red indicator in acid and alkaline conditions. These colours were then used to determine the

Spanish essay Hispanics to Americans Cultural diffusion By: Emma Stone “Hello my name is Pablo” said one boy Or better put “Hola me llamo Pablo” Hispanic culture is everywhere and so is their culture‚ music‚ dance‚ food‚ languages‚ and art. If you take the Hispanics out of America you are also taking out very famous artists and actors such as George Clooney‚ Shakira‚ and Jennifer Lopez. But the entire Hispanic culture is not just made up of famous

5-dinitrobenzoic acid to oxidize the aldehyde group on the carbohydrate‚ the reducing end of glucose increases in absorbance of 540 nm. Using a UV spectrophotometer‚ the concentration was calculated by using a regression line of the standard curve. The experimental data concluded a 1068.912 µg/ml. With the actual concentration being 1200.000 µg/ml‚ a 10.924% error was deduced. Though the error is slightly high‚ the deviation of 134.370 µg/ml makes up for some of the error through this process;

The mechanism of heart contraction and relaxation (mechanical restitution) is the basic of cardiac functioning. This mechanical restitution is driven by calcium movement and concentrations. An increase in cystolic calcium concentration causes contraction in myocardium. Calcium from the extracellular fluid enters the cardiomyocyte through the L-type Ca2+ channels after being propagated by the cardiac action potential which depolarises the cell. This flood of calcium triggers more calcium release

Introduction A group of people wrote in response to a statement about marijuana use. The statement was about a young adult who uses marijuana. He/She said that when under the influence of marijuana‚ that he/she has and uncanny amount of concentration. He/She is able to perform home maintenance‚ schoolwork‚ and yoga stretching with an overall better performance than when he/she is sober‚ or not "high". In reading this selection I realized that many others‚ including myself‚ have better performance

AIM The aim of this investigation is to explore the effect of different concentrations of bile salts on the time taken for the lipase enzyme to break down fat. BILE Bile is a brownish bitter alkaline fluid produced by the liver and made by the hepatocytes from water‚ bile salts‚ bile pigments cholesterol and phospholipids and stored in the gall bladder. Bile is directly connected with digestion. It is released sporadically into the small intestine (duodenum) which is part of the gut in order

Group 4 Internal Assessment Partners: Bhavya and Katherine Research question: Does the concentration (mol dm3) of sulphur dioxide in wine rise or fall when exposed to air for different time periods (0‚ 75‚150‚225‚ 300 minutes)? Purpose: Many adults enjoy the consumption of wine but are not aware of the different preservatives and chemicals that are added to the drink. Sulphur Dioxide‚ which is added to many food products including wine because it acts as a reductant‚ is ‘well known as a poisonous

Investigation - Solution Colour and Ion Concentration Aim: To investigate whether solution colour can be used to reliably determine the concentration of coloured ions in a solution. Hypothesis: the concentration of permanganate ions in the solution is inversely proportional to the percentage transmission of light through the solution. Dependent variable: concentration of permanganate ions. Independent variable: percentage transmission of light through the solution. Equipment: 20 ml
