After the dialysis tubing soaked in the distilled water overnight‚ the measurements showed that the dialysis tubing increased in mass. The initial weight of the dialysis tubing was 19.08 grams‚ but it went up to 19.34 grams after sitting in the distilled water for some time. The amount of distilled water in the beaker also decreased. There used to be 200 mL of distilled water in the beaker‚ but it decreased to 199 mL after the dialysis tubing soaked in it. The data collected supports the claim that

Introduction In Diffusion‚ Dialysis & Osmosis lab‚ we discovered that we were going to observe and understand the conditions under which diffusion‚ dialysis‚ and osmosis occur. Then we constructed models of diffusion‚ dialysis‚ and osmosis. We predicted that the direction of change would be from the membrane to the beaker. We understood how these processes affected the selectivity of the cell membrane. The second part of the lab was dealing with dialysis. In this part we studied starch and sodium
