Steps of scientific method
- Objective
- Question
- Hypothesis
- Experiment
- Data/Results/Analyze
- Conclusion
Characteristics of a good hypothesis?
- Must be able to account for all available data
2. Must be able to be tested
What is an ion and how many protons and electrons it has?
Ion: An ion is an atom that loses or gains an electron and therefore is negatively or positively charged.
Difference between IONIC and covalent bond?
Ionic bond: Opposite charges attract. usually between I metals and non metals.
Difference between Ionic and COVALENT BOND?
Covalent bond: Same charges attract. Usually between 2 non metals.
Know many covalent bonds the common atom make?
Carbon = 4 Nitrogen = 3 Oxygen = 2 Hydrogen = 1
What DIFFUSION and Osmosis are?
Diffusion: The movement of molecules move from a high concentration to a low concentration.
What diffusion and OSMOSIS are?
Osmosis: Diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.
Selectively permeable:
A thin sheet of material that allows certain molecules to cross and prevents others from crossing.
What types of molecules can CROSS and what molecules can’t cross the plasma membrane?
CAN: Water, and small molecules can cross.
What types of molecules can cross and what molecules CAN’T cross the plasma membrane?
syrup, Sugar, protein and other big molecules.
What happens to cells In HYPERTONIC, hypotonic, isotonic.
Hypertonic:
Greater concentration of solutes outside of the cell.
Water goes outside of the cell therefore it shrinks.
What happens to cells In hypertonic, HYPOTONIC, isotonic.
Hypotonic:
Greater concentration inside of the cell.
Water flows inside the cell therefore the cell swells and burst.
What happens to cells In hypertonic, hypotonic, ISOTONIC.
Isotonic: Concentration of solutes is equal inside of the cell and outside of the cell.
Explain why the bags got heavier in our osmosis experiment:
Water flows inside of the cell.
or water molecules cross the membrane.
What is the effect of the TEMPERATURE and SYRUP CONCENTRATION on osmosis.
TEMPERATURE: As temperature increases the rate of osmosis increases.
SYRUP: The higher the concentration of syrup the higher the rate of osmosis.
Active transport: and when is it used of cells?
- The movement of molecules from low concentration to high concentration.
- Requires energy from ATP
- Requires Transport protein/ carrier protein.
