Sugar solution

Solutions, colloids, and suspensions are all types of mixtures. Suspensions and colloids are classified as heterogeneous mixtures and solutions are classified as the homogeneous mixture. Solutions are single atoms that never settle and are transparent which also means clear. Colloids are aggregates of atoms, molecules, or ions, they can settle and they are transparent with a Tyndall effect. Suspensions are clumps of particles such as sand and their movement is by gravity with the translucent effect

I was able to determine which solution corresponded to which molarity by my knowledge of how water osmosis from high concentrations of water to low concentrations of water. I determined solution D to be the lowest molarity of 0.0 moles because the potatoes that were immersed in this solution had the highest average percent increase in mass of 23.08%. Since there is a small amount of sugar in the potato cores and the potato cores gained a large amount of mass, that must mean that there was a higher

two different solutions set at two different conditions, at room temperature and 40°C. The two most common solutions used in osmotic drying are salt (sodium chloride) and sucrose (Gekas et al., 1998). Both are very effective osmotic agent and are very different in terms of their molecular size. Materials and Methods • Apples were used as a sample for this experiment. The apples were cut to a thickness of 1.5mm. • 600g of sucrose and 400g of water to make the 60° Brix solution and 600g of salt

electrons it shares with the hydrogen atoms. The partial charges make it possible for water molecules to arrange themselves around charged atoms (ions) in solution, like the sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl−) ions that dissociate when table salt dissolves in water. Other substances that dissolve in water also lower the freezing point of the solution. The amount by which the freezing point is lowered depends only on the number of molecules dissolved, not on their chemical nature. This is an example of

idea that can be understood in a simpler form, i.e., having hot coffee and adding sugar to it. It appears that the hot coffee melts the salt, but deeper beyond the surface the hot coffee molecules break apart the sugar molecules; the molecules are broken down, because of the increase in temperature that causes the molecules to collide harder. The collision is caused by the faster, vibrating molecules in the solution. The solute (salt) is the substance that dissolves in the solvent (water) and it

Title: The effect the molarity of sucrose solution has on osmolarity Introduction: Passive transport occurs when substances move from high concentration areas to a lower concentration region. Both Diffusion and Osmosis are examples of passive transport, however, osmosis is when water molecules move across a selectively permeable membrane. The plasma membrane, being a thin barrier to outside environment, is a selectively permeable membrane. Thus, it only allows certain particles to enter or exit

concentration increases as well. The trend line that was received from the data also supported the hypothesis because it increased as the sucrose concentration increased. The initial weight gain percents were all different because all of the groups’ sugar concentrations were not completely identical. The method used wasn’t entirely accurate because there could’ve been some flaws such as some bags weren’t secured enough and might have leaked sucrose into the de-ionized water causing the results to be

twenty-four pieces of potato. Then the cups with the potatoes are filled with different amounts of sucrose concentration; 0%, 4%, 8%, 12%, 16%, and 20%. The hypothesis of the lab was if the potatoes mass were to increase then the amount of sucrose sugar would increase as well.

solvent is the major part of solution which dissolves the solute, and solute is the part of solution that is being dissolved. Therefore the combination of solvent and solute is solution which is a type of homogenous mixture. For example, if water is the solvent and lemon juice and sugar are the solute, lemonade is the solution. Also, every solution has its own solubility which is the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a solvent under certain condition. A solution can be saturated, unsaturated

making solutions of NaCl in water at different concentration, we found that the saturating concentration NaCl is between 0.375g/ml and 0.500g/ml. Using the same method, we found that the saturating concentration of sucrose is 0.750g/ml. Moreover, to further our understanding of density, we created a discontinuous density gradient using different concentration of sucrose solutions. When we placed the solutions in the test tube according to their relative density, we found that the solution with highest
