Investigation of Factors Affect Osmosis in Potatoes Aim The aim of the following experiment was to investigate the effect of varying the concentration of sucrose solution on osmosis in a potato. Preliminary Experiments One preliminary experiment was done before the main experiment. From the preliminary‚ we were trying to find out how osmosis actually occurred in potatoes‚ and gave us a vague idea on what the main experiment would be like. This preliminary will aid my prediction

MIXTURES‚ SOLUTIONS‚ SUSPENSIONS AND COLLOIDS MIXTURES A mixture is a combination made up of two or more different substances which are mixed but are not chemically bonded. There are also types of mixtures such as homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures. SOLUTIONS A solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture composed of a solute; a substance dissolved into another substance known as a solvent. They can also be defined as groups of molecules that are mixed up completely in even

different areas experience underpopulation and overpopulation at different times due to the unpredictable and complex practise of migration. Underpopulation occurs when there are far more resources in an area‚ such as food energy and minerals‚ than can be used by the people living there. Overpopulation occurs when there are too many people and not enough resources and technology to support these people. Countries such as China and Bangladesh have overpopulation as there are often food shortages and insufficient

Biology Hl lab report: Topic: Osmosis of potatoes in different sucrose solutions. The aim of this experiment is to test whether more water moves out of a potato when it is placed in a sweeter sucrose solution than a potato in a less sweet solution. The hypothesis of the experiment is that we expect more water to move out of the potato placed in the sweet solution than the potato placed in a less sweet solution. Independent variable: concentration of sucrose‚ concentrations: pure water

Experiment 3 : Preparation of Solutions and Buffers Objectives : 1. To study and understand the principle theory and formula of preparation of buffer and solution. 2. To learn the methods of buffer and solution preparation. 3. To focus on concentration units of molarity‚ percentage of concentration‚ and dilution of solution. Introduction : When a substance‚ called a solute‚ is dissolved in another substance‚ called the solvent‚ a solution is formed. A solution is known as a homogeneous

and Properties of Solutions INTRODUCTION The experiment aimed to describe the various ways of expressing the concentration of solutions; prepare solutions of definite concentrations from standard substances by dilution and solve problems involving preparation of solutions and their concentrations. BACKGROUND INFORMATION A solution is any homogenous mixture of two or more substances‚ the relative properties of which may vary within certain limits. The two components of solutions are the solute

SOME OF THE PROBLEMS THAT OVERPOPULATION CAUSES AND SUGGEST AT LEAST ONE POSSIBLE SOLUTION. Due to recent improvement in healthcare system as well as the economic growth‚ the population is increasing faster and faster. This is laying a heavy burden on the economy‚ society and environment of both advanced and developing nations. In this essay‚ I’m going to explore the main problems caused by overcrowding and suggest some possible solutions. First‚ overpopulation tends to slowdown the economy
