Osmosis is often defined as the flow of water through a semipermeable membrane, from a dilute solution to a more concentrated solution. Video experiment #1 – saturated sucrose/dialysis tubing/water osmosis from U Mich. https://youtu.be/pCupvFGN4bw A saturated solution of sucrose-containing a red dye is separated from water by dialysis material. What happens to the volume of sucrose solution during the experiment? How do you know that the sucrose solution did not flow into the beaker of water? (Give evidence from your observation of the experiment.) Diffusion, Osmosis, Dialysis video: https://youtu.be/tHzkRtzVmUMDialysis, the flow of both solvent and small molecules or ions through a dialyzing membrane, is important clinically in the operation of the artificial kidney machine.
Which of the following dialysis membranes has the largest pore size? Select one: 20 MWCO 50 MWCO 100 MWCO 200 MWCO
Dialysis is a process of selective diffusion through a membrane. It is usually used to separate low-molecular-weight solutes which diffuse through the membrane from the colloidal and high-molecular-weight solutes which do not. What are the factors affecting dialysis.
You have dialysis tubing that is permeable to water but not sucrose that contain 10 mL of varying concentrations of sucrose solutions that are placed in a beaker with 100 mL of water. In which beaker/bag combination will osmosis happen the fastest? 10% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing 20% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing 30% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing 40% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing
Using a semi-permeable membrane, dialysis allows the removal of salt ions prior to chromatography. O True False
Describe the similarities and differences between the dialysis bag and a cell membrane. Be specific. If you want water to flow out of a dialysis bag filled with a 50 percent sucrose solution what would be the minimum concentration of the beaker solution need to be?
A dialysis tube that contains 10 mL of a 5% sucrose solution and that is permeable to water but not sucrose is placed in 100 mL of a 5% sucrose solution. What will happen to the bag over time? Cannot be determined. The bag will lose weight. The bag will gain weight. The bag will stay the same weight.
A dialysis bag contains 10% starch solution. The dialysis bag is placed in a beaker filled with deionized water. Ten drops of Starch indicator (iodine solution, KI) solution is placed into the deionized water. The water turns a yellowish-brown color, however, you notice that the starch solution begins to turn black. Describe what is happening with respect to the diffusion of starch.
If the dialysis tubing and the beaker solution are both 25% sucrose/iodine it would be isotonic right?
A paramecium cell placed into a hypotonic solution will experience which of the following effects? expulsion of the excess water using its contractile vacuoles plasmolysis hemolysis shrinkage crenation
Submerging of a red blood cell in a hypertonic solution will result in Lysis of the cell membrane Bursting of the cell Plasmolysis of the cell The cell becoming turgid The cell becoming flaccid
You set up an experiment where you place a sealed (clamped) dialysis tube cell in a beaker of water. The solution in the dialysis tube cell is 25%NaCl solution and the solution in the beaker is 1%NaCl solution. The solvent for both is water. Before you place the tube in the cell, after it has been filled and clamped, you find the mass of the ‘cell’ after carefully drying off any water on the outside or on the clamps. You also find the mass of the cell after it has been placed in the beaker solution for 30 minutes after carefully drying off the outside of the ‘cell’ and clamps. The masses are in the table below. Mass in grams of dialysis tube cell Initial Mass 25.0g Final Mass after 30 minutes 28.7g Using this information, explain the difference in mass before and after submerging the cell in the beaker solution for 30 minutes.
