What happens if you add phenol red to water and blow in it with a straw?

Just did this in my BIO 100 lab at SDSU so I know this answer... Background: Phenol red is a pH indicator which is yellow in acidic solutions and red in basic solutions. When you blow into the water with the phenol red, you are adding Carbon Dioxide into the solution. Carbon Dioxide would make this solution more acidic. Therefore this presence of Carbon Dioxide would change the solution color from red to a more orange - yellow color. Hope that helps!

Why does the solution of water and sugar move up the straw in a tied baggie when put in water?

Osmotic pressure. The concentration in the bag is greater than outside the bag. Sugar molecules cannot pass thru the bag but water can. To try to create the same concentration inside and outside the bag water moves into the bag to dilute the solution inside the bag. This extra water now in the bag causes the liquid to move up the straw.

Rubbing a straw against your body transfers electrons from your body to the straw, giving the straw a net negative charge due to an excess of electrons. This charge imbalance can cause the straw to attract lightweight objects like small pieces of paper or dust.

What happens to the water in the straw when you take your finger off the top?

When you take your finger off the top of a straw, the atmospheric pressure pushes the water up the straw to fill the empty space created by your finger. This is due to the difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the straw.


Are the air bubbles that form on a straw submerged in liquid formed from oxygen that is already in the water or are they carried into the water by the straw as it is submerged?

The straw gives energy to dissolved gases in the liquid, be those gases oxygen, or whatever. The energy given to the gases causes those gases to come out of solution in the water, and to collect on the surface of the straw.
