I must consult with The Elder Gods.
The concentration of starch would depend on the volume and concentration of starch in each container. If the same volume of starch solution is in both the baggie and beaker, then the concentration of starch would be the same.
If left in an open beaker, the concentration of sodium hydroxide solution may decrease due to evaporation of water. If left in a closed beaker, the concentration should remain constant unless there is some chemical reaction occurring.
Yes, it is important to dry a beaker before collecting a solution as any remaining liquid in the beaker could dilute the solution being collected, affecting the concentration and accuracy of the solution. Drying the beaker also helps to ensure that the solution is not contaminated by any residual water or impurities from the beaker.
If liver cells are placed in a beaker with a solution that has the same solute concentration as the inside of the cells, the beaker would contain an isotonic solution. In this scenario, there would be no net movement of water into or out of the cells, maintaining their shape and function. The cells would remain stable, as the osmotic pressure is balanced.
The solution in the bag is hypotonic compared to the solution in the beaker. This is because the bag has a lower concentration of solute (2%) compared to the beaker (10%), so water will tend to move into the bag to equalize the concentrations, causing the bag to swell.
The balloon will contain a mixture of the 10% and 5% glucose solutions. Since water can pass through but not glucose, the glucose concentration inside the balloon will decrease over time as water moves from the lower concentration in the beaker to the higher concentration in the balloon through osmosis.
Beakers that will be used to collect solutions should be completely dry before use due the possibility of water being able to dilute the solution that will be placed inside of the beaker. If a beaker is not completely dry before collection of a solution, an inacurracy in data results may occur.
It depends on the concentration of solutes inside and outside the baggie or beaker. If the concentration of solutes is higher inside the baggie or beaker compared to the surrounding environment, then it is hypertonic. If the concentration is lower, then it is hypotonic.
In a beaker containing a solution, red blood cells can either swell or shrink depending on the solution’s tonicity. If the solution is hypotonic (lower solute concentration than inside the cells), water enters the cells, causing them to swell and potentially burst. Conversely, in a hypertonic solution (higher solute concentration), water exits the cells, leading to cell shrinkage. This movement of water across the cell membrane is driven by osmotic pressure.
After 20 minutes, the solution in the beaker will likely show changes depending on the experiment being conducted, such as diffusion or osmosis. If the tubing is semi-permeable and there is a concentration gradient, the solution inside the tubing may either dilute or concentrate based on the movement of solutes or water. The beaker solution may also change in color or clarity if substances are exchanged. Overall, the specific outcomes will depend on the nature of the solutions and the conditions of the experiment.
To calculate the density of the saline solution, you will need to know its mass. If the mass is not provided, you can't determine the density just based on the volume. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume.
Depends on how accurate your results need to be. If you're not using grade A or B glassware and its just a standard beaker then the effect of the residual water will be negligible compared to the calibration error of the beaker.
