Throughout the process of the experiment, various concentrations of a solution of Sucrose and Water were placed into hydrolysis tubing and placed into and ambient environment of sterile water. An observation of a Starch solution in an ambient solution of sterile water and iodine was done to check for a chemical reaction of starch and iodine indicating diffusion. Also an observation of two segments of carrot placed each in Distilled and in Salt Water, to determine whether or not osmosis is taking place…
In an attempt to satisfy my hypophysis that when one placed a set amount of various molar concentrations of a solution of sucrose and distilled water into an ambient solution of distilled water, diffusion into the hydrolysis tubing with the solutions will occur, causing the tubes to gain weight. Also that a solution of starch and water in hydrolysis tubing placed in a Water/Iodine solution would generate a chemical reacion within the tube between the starch and the iodine, also indicating diffusion.
And lastly that two pieces of carrot, one placed in water, the other in salt water, would reveal that the salt water would draw moisture out of the carrot into the salty environment, causing the carrot in the salt water to become limp the opposite would occur in the other carrot. ” Throughout the process of the experiment, various concentrations of a solution of Sucrose and Water were placed into hydrolysis tubing which in turn are placed into and ambient environment of sterile water.
Also, an observation of a Starch solution in an ambient solution of sterile water and iodine was done to check for a chemical reaction between the starch and iodine indicating diffusion. Last, an observation of two segments of carrot placed one each in Distilled and in Salt Water, was done to determine whether or not osmosis is taking place between the carrots and the solution or the solution and the carrots.
