71
Q

IN LAB YOU TESTED THE RATE OF DIFFUSION OF POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE AND METHYLENE BLUE THROUGH AGAR. WHICH DYE MIGRATED AT A SLOWER RATE? WHY?

A

Methylene blue because it has a heavier molecular weight of 320 compared to potassium permanganate’s molecular weight of 158

72
Q

IN LAB YOU OBSERVED THE PROCESS OF FILTRATION OF A SOLUTION CONTAINING STARCH, COPPER SULFATE AND CHARCOAL. ____________________ DID NOT PASS THROUGH THE FILTER PAPER. WHY?

A

charcoal and starch because they are of larger molecular size than the filter paper pores

73
Q

THE RATE OF DIFFUSION OF POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE AND METHYLENE BLUE THROUGH AGAR IS DIFFERENT,WHY?

A

DUE TO MOLECULAR WEIGht

74
Q

IN LAB YOU OBSERVED THE PROCESS OF FILTRATION OF A SOLUTION CONTAINING STARCH, COPPER SULFATE AND CHARCOAL. NOT ALL OF THE SUBSTANCES PASSED THROUGH THE FILTER PAPER. WHICH DID NOT PASS THROUGH? WHY?

A

Charcoal and starch because the molecular sizes are larger than that of filter paper pores

75
Q

A

Noticed visually by black flecks on filter paper

76
Q

HOW WAS THE PRESENCE OF COPPER SULFATE IN THE FILTRATION BEAKER VERIFIED?

A

If the filtrate appears to be blue

77
Q

WHAT WAS USED TO TEST FOR THE PRESENCE OF STARCH ON THE FILTRATION PAPER?

A

Lugol’s Iodine

78
Q

WHAT COLOR WAS SEEN WHEN THE IODINE WAS PLACED ON THE FILTRATION PAPER?

A

Black bc starch is present

79
Q

WHAT COLOR WAS SEEN WHEN THE IODINE WAS PLACED IN THE FILTRATION BEAKER?

A

Orange. No starch

80
Q

DOES POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE DIFFUSE FASTER THROUGH LIQUID (WATER) OR SOLID (AGAR)

A

Liquid

81
Q

IN LAB, USING DIALYSIS TUBING AND METHYLENE BLUE, DOES METHYLENE BLUE STAY INSIDE THE TUBING OR EXIT?

A

EXIT

82
Q

IN LAB, USING DIALYSIS TUBING AND METHYLENE BLUE, WHY DOES METHYLENE BLUE EXIT THE TUBING

A

It is small enough to exit therefore moves down its concentration gradient

83
Q

IN LAB, USING DIALYSIS TUBING, DID BLUE DEXTRAN EXIT THE TUBING? WHY?

A

No. blue dextran could not escape due to its size. blue dextran’s molecular weight is too large for it to travel across the dialysis membrane’s pores

84
Q

WHAT MEDIUM WAS USED TO SHOW DIFFUSION THROUGH A SOLID?

A

Agar
