    Marisela Andrade The Effects of Salt Water on Gummy Bears Facilitated diffusion depends on passive transport. Molecules cross cell membrane by diffusion. A type of diffusion is osmosis. If no energy is input into the system during diffusion‚ the molecules will reach a state of equilibrium. The purpose of this experiment was to study why the death occurred among those who drank salt water. Two blue gummy bears had a height of 2 centimeters each. The mass of these gummy bears together were

    Controlled Assessment: Osmosis of a Potato [pic] Osmosis: Osmosis is the movement of substances through a partially/semi permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration to balance of the concentration of the two sides. Biological membranes do allow water to pass through‚ but water will have no net movement unless osmosis takes place. Preliminary Method I have chosen to investigate the factor of the weight of potato strips after set amounts of time. Why

    Salt and the effect it has on water. Do you like salt? Do you put it on your food to make it taste better? Salt doesn’t just make food taste better; it can change the freezing and boiling point of water. I bet you didn’t know that! There’s a reason for that‚ but I’ll explain that a little later. First‚ let’s find out if salt can actually change the freezing and boiling point of water. To do so‚ we need to do an experiment. Now‚ if you’re going to do an experiment‚ you’re going to need a hypothesis

    Investigating the Water Potential of a Potato. I have been asked to investigate the water potential of a potato. During my investigation I will not actually be able to measure a value for‚ as it is a pressure value (kPa). Osmosis is a special form of diffusion involving only water molecules. It is defined as "The passage of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane" Definition of Water Potential. The potential for water to move

    Investigating the water potential of a potato Aim Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high water concentration to a low water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. Our aim is to investigate the water potential of a potato through osmosis‚ by finding the difference in weight before and after the potato has been set in a solution of water‚ sugar or salt. Trial Method Firstly we collected the equipment. This included a scalpel‚ potato cutter‚ and test tubes. Then

    Salt Water Intrusion and Salination By: Ryan Tallman University of Phoenix 2009 In this modern world we are faced with many different issues. Sometimes we forget that the majority of our earth is covered in oceans and freshwater. Almost two thirds of the world’s population lives within 250 miles of an ocean coastline. One of the many issues we are facing in our waters is saltwater intrusion and salinization. Saltwater intrusion and salinization is defined as the increase of chloride ion concentrations
