carried out to investigate at which point the potato has reached its isotonic environment. From the results‚ when the concentration increase to 0.3M‚ the mass of the potato slices decreased by -3.26%. We can conclude we see that as we increased the sucrose concentration it was a decrease in the percent change. Introduction All cells have membranes that are selectively permeable. In other words‚ they allow certain things in and certain substances are not allowed to enter the inside of the cell. Osmosis

Abstract The basic principles of Osmosis and Diffusion were tested and examined in this lab. We examined the percent increase of mass and molarity of different concentrations of sucrose in the dialysis bag emerged in distilled water and the potato cores emerged in concentrations of sucrose. The data reinforces the principles of Osmosis and Diffusion‚ and in a biological context‚ we can simulate how water and particles move in and out of our own cells. Introduction Objective: 1

The Hill Reaction tests water splitting in photosynthesis‚ and can be observed when a color change occurs. This color change will occur when a molecule is split and electrons are removed from molecular oxygen and hydrogen ions. DCIP combined with sucrose or ethanol spinach mixtures‚ will give either a green color (indicating photosynthesis occurred) or no color at all (indicating no photosynthesis occurred)‚ depending on the factors and environments to which the mixtures will be tested.

Observations: -Qualitative: The potatoes were: Tubed shaped Yellow in color Initially hard in texture -Quantitative: Table 1: Weight of the potato in grams before and after placed in a different concentrations of sucrose solutions.

results we got shows that osmosis occurred in this experiment. In 0.0 mols of sucrose the mass of potato has increased so there has been diffusion of water from 0.0 mols of sucrose which is the lower concentration to 3.71 grams of potato which is the higher concentration. Also in 1.0 mols of sucrose the mass of potato has decreased and it should decrease when there is osmosis present because in this case 1.0 mols of sucrose is the higher concentration and the 3.58 grams of potato is the lower concentration

foresee the effect of solute concentration on osmosis. In order to achieve these objectives‚ we had to fill the dialysis tubing with either water‚ or different amounts of sucrose. We then tied off the tubes and put them into beakers of distilled water to see how the color changed in the bag/beaker. The result was that the more sucrose in the bag‚ the greater the final mass. Introduction: The reasons for doing this lab are so that we can learn about osmosis with a model similar to a cell and so that

invertase specifically catalyzes the reaction of the conversion of sucrose to its individual carbohydrates glucose and fructose. It does not catalyse the reaction of maltose to 2 glucose or lactose to galactose. In this experiment‚ titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods were used to determine the specificity of invertase by determining the amount of glucose converted from the given disaccharides. The results show that sucrose yielded the least amount of glucose and got the lowest absorbance reading

Osmosis using potato cores and sucrose solution 1.0 Abstract This experiment’s ultimate goal is to find the water potential of the potato cell. This was achieved through placing potato cores in different concentrations of sucrose (0.2%‚ 0.4%‚ 0.6%‚ 0.8%‚ 1.0%‚ 2.0%‚ 3.0% and 4.0%) solution and to observe how much water was gained or lost through osmosis to reach a prediction of the concentration within the potato cell. The results displayed that the concentration of sucrose within the potato cell is

fermentation of yeast. The types of sugar being used in the experiment is glucose‚ sucrose‚ and lactose. Glucose is a monosaccharide and is used in the first step of glycolysis in order to help create pyruvates‚ which are then used to create ethanol as long as there is no mitochondria or oxygen present. Sucrose is a disaccharide‚ commonly referred to as sugar‚ it’s used worldwide‚ and mainly harvested from sugarcanes. Sucrose is composed of two

unknown sucrose solutions. First I would pour an equal volume of each solution into beakers labeled A‚ B‚ C‚ and D. I would also have a beaker of the same amount of distilled water to serve as a control for the experiment. Then I would obtain several baby carrots‚ 4 per beaker. I would mass the groups of 4 potatoes before placing them in their respective beakers of solution. potatoes do have semipermeable cell membranes (water should be able to pass‚ but not necessarily the larger sucrose)‚ but in
