Gummy Bear Hypothesis

How does the size of a Gummy Bear change when it is soaked in water?

Osmosis is a natural occurrence constantly happening within the cells of all living things. For osmosis to occur, water molecules must move across a semipermeable membrane from an area of low concentration to an are of high concentration. In order to understand osmosis, people must understand the different types of concentrations that can be present within solution. One of them is an Isotonic solution where the concentration of dissolved particles is equal to that of a cell’s. Another is a hypertonic solution where there is a higher concentration of dissolved particles then inside the cell. And lastly there is a hypotonic solution where there are less dissolved particles than inside the cell. As dissolved particles move to a region of lower concentration, water moves the opposite direction as a result of there being less water in the highly concentrated region. In this experiment, gummy bears were placed in salt water, sugar water, and tap water to find the measure of osmosis between the solution and gummy bear.

Observations: During the experiment, bubbles were present from the water in the electric water baths that were set at temperatures of 50 degrees Celsius and 60 degrees Celsius. This is because the water has passed its boiling point and began to boil. The glucose powder had a white color. The yeast powder had a mild yellow color. When the glucose solution was mixed with water, it gave a clear color. When glucose solution was mixed with the yeast, it produced a murky yellow color. Bubbles also arose when CO2 was being lost in the experiment under each desired temperature.

The results of this lab shows how osmosis, diffusion, hypertonic, and hypotonic solutions. One way the gummy bear shows osmosis in gummy bears is how the gummy bear in the water solution grew the most. This gummy bear grew the most because the solution had a higher concentration, this in turn caused the solution to begin equalizing the concentration on each side

What happened to the bears when placed in salt water? - When placed into salt water both of the bears shrunk in size. The Distilled bear reduced to about -44% , while the Tap bear decreased by -17%. This happened because the concentration areas were to high in the gummy bears and the molecules transported into the salt water where there was a lower concentration

After completing this experiment, our tap water hypothesis was correct, and our saltwater hypothesis was also proven. For the tap water, the gummy bear expanded as we thought it would. This was because of osmosis. The water outside of the bear diffused into the bear from the higher concentration outside into the lower concentration inside of it. The gummy bear was a selectively permeable membrane. This made a hypotonic solution, and the water rushed into the bear, making it get bigger. For the salt water, the bear shrunk as we predicted, also because of osmosis. This was a hypertonic solution, so the water rushed out of the bear, making it smaller. So our hypothesis for both tap and salt water were correct. We carried out the experiment properly

The news is out and Sugar Bear of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo got married again, but not to Mama June. It turns out that he has moved on from her and married a woman that he met on social media. Radar Online shared the details about Sugar Bear's wedding and his new wife. He is now married to Jennifer Lamb, and the two were together a bit over a year before getting married. No pictures from their big day have been released yet, but you have to wonder if he went with the camo theme once again that he had for his wedding to Mama June.

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the effect that different liquids would have on gummy bears. To do this we brought in different liquids, such as Fanta soda, salt water, water, and baking soda water. My hypothesis is, If you put gummy bears in different liquids then they might dissolve or enlarge. This experiment was tested on 9-14-17 and my group and I started gathering data, we started with 1 minute, 5 minutes, and then 24 hours. There wasn’t much change in the 1 and 5 minutes, the real change happened overnight. The next day of this experiment the gummy bears had mostly enlarged and softened, there was one that accomplished to do the exact opposite, the salt water gummy bear decreased and hardened. I believe that the salt

All four gummi bears had a mass of 2.5 g. Gummi bears one and two, which were our control gummi bears, were placed in the same beaker of water which had an original temperature of 26 degrees Celsius. After the 10 minutes had passed of keeping them in the water, the mass of each gummi bear had increased slightly. However, when we placed gummi bears 3 and 4 in the water, which measured 52 degrees Celsius, we observed that both gummi bears had completely dissolved in the water even before the 10 minutes were up. For trial two, we witnessed similar results occur. When doing trial two, the mass of gummi bears number five and six had a mass of 2.5g. Then after placing gummi bears number five and six in the the water, which sustained a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, the mass of both the gummi bears had increased, similar to gummi bears one and two in the trial one.

Did you know that the whole “seven years” thing is a myth? A piece of swallowing gum won’t clog up your intestines, but it will be with you for a few days. Gum base can’t be digested, so it will pass through your system in one piece. That said, I still don’t recommend that you swallow it! Want to know more about gum just keep on reading!

The purpose of this experiment is to conduct what happens to gummy bears when we put them into different liquids. When we were done we gathered data and saw that the gummy bears ended up with different textures and sizes. There were only some minor differences. For water after a day, the length changed, the width, height, and mass. For salt water only the mass changed, before it was 2.6 and after it was 1.5 grams. The next liquid is sugar water, and for that liquid all the of the data changed. The length was 3 cm before, after it was 3.5 cm. The width of the gummy bear was 3 cm before, after it was 1 cm, and after it was 1.5 The height was 2 cm, and changed to 1 cm. Lastly is the mass, it was 2.6 and the after it changed to 5.1. The

Can our childhood determine the amount of success we will have in our lives? This is what psychologist Walter Mischel wanted to find out in his experiment called “The Marshmallow Test” he started this experiment in the early 1970s. What he did was give preschoolers a marshmallow and told them if they waited fifteen minutes without eating it then he would give them two. Later research found that the children who waited were more successful, but did this test really determine that the children would be more successful than those who failed? The children who waited showed delayed gratification and those who couldn 't resist did not. Mischel followed these preschoolers until they were grown up and he found that they were very successful and able to have self-control. This experiment proves delayed gratification and how the children who waited became more successful in life, but recent studies prove that this test could just be a result in strategic reasoning.

With nearly 300,000 breast augmentations performed in 2014, this procedure is the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure performed in the Nation.

In conclusion, the potato cube with the highest surface area to volume ratio (the 1x1x1 cube) had the fastest rate of diffusion as it had the largest percentage increase in mass. While all the other cubes of potato had larger increases in mass at face value compared to the smallest cube, the smallest cube had the largest overall gain in percentage. The results support my hypothesis that the smallest cube will have a higher rate of osmosis because it has a proportionally larger amount of surface area compared to its volume.

The purpose of this lab is to test the effect of osmosis on cucumber slices. If a cucumber slice is placed in a hypertonic solution, then the mass of the cucumber slice will decrease. Whereas, if
