diffusion rates and can even prevent all diffusion. 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? Your answer: The urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane because the molecular weight was too high. For a molecular weight of 60.07‚ a larger membrane would need to be used. The results opposed my prediction because the urea did not diffuse at all. I predicted that it would diffuse‚ but very slowly

Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through 20 MWCO? How well did the results compare with your predictions? The urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO because the membrane pores are too small and the urea molecules are large. The molecular weight of Urea is 60.07 g/mol which is too large thus the molecules were not able to pass through the pores of the 20 MWCO. The results that I obtained from the experiment agreed with these predictions because urea was no able to diffuse

Which did not? Why? Albumin was too large to diffuse into the right beaker. Activity 2: Simulating Dialysis 6. What happens to the urea concentration in the left beaker (the patient)? Its concentration gradient changes and causes it to move down. 7. Why does this occur? It happened because the

Urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO because the pores of the membrane were too small for the urea to pass through. The molecular weight of urea is 60.06 g/mol‚ over three times greater than the 20 MWCO. 3. Glucose was able to diffuse through the 200 MWCO pore because it was small enough‚ having a molecular weight

How well did the results compare with your prediction? a. My prediction was incorrect. I think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane because the molecular weight of urea is about 60. This means it is above the molecular weight cut off and cannot diffuse. 3.

The Urea test was used to test both Unknown Gram-positive and Unknown Gram-negative bacteria. One colony of bacteria was used from the Unknown 13A plate and Unknown 13B plate in order to inoculate the Urea Slant. After the slant was inoculated‚ the cultures were placed in an incubator at 35ºC for Gram-positive bacteria‚ and 37ºC for Gram-negative bacteria for a total of 48 hours. If the Urea test were positive‚ the color of the slant would have changed to a hot pink color‚ which indicated the bacteria’s
