Yes, phenolphthalein can pass through dialysis tubing, as it is a small organic molecule. Dialysis tubing is designed to allow the passage of small solutes while retaining larger molecules, so substances like phenolphthalein, which has a molecular weight of about 318 g/mol, can diffuse through the pores of the tubing. This property is often utilized in experiments to demonstrate diffusion and the selective permeability of membranes.
No.Hydrogen ion cannot pass through the pores of dialysis tubing.
Yes, oxygen molecules are small enough to pass through the pores of dialysis tubing. This allows oxygen to diffuse into the dialysis tubing from a surrounding solution or environment.
The dialysis tubing in the lab is representing the cell membrane of a cell. Like the cell membrane, the dialysis tubing is selectively permeable, allowing only certain molecules to pass through based on size and charge. This setup is used in experiments to study osmosis and diffusion, which are also important processes regulated by the cell membrane.
Semi-permeable tubing that only allows small molecules to pass through is typically made of materials like cellulose acetate or polyvinylidene fluoride. These materials have pores that are specifically sized to allow the passage of small molecules while blocking larger ones. This type of tubing is commonly used in applications such as dialysis or ultrafiltration.
Cannot pass through visking tubing: sugar starch lactose sucrose Can pass through visking tubing: Iodine Glucose Maltose

Yes, oxygen molecules are small enough to pass through the pores of dialysis tubing. This allows oxygen to diffuse into the dialysis tubing from a surrounding solution or environment.
Yes, protein can diffuse through dialysis tubing due to its small size and ability to pass through the pores of the tubing.
I don't know unless you give more details!
The tubing is permeable; itallows water to pass through the tube wall.
The dialysis tubing is meant to represent the semi permeable membrane of a cell. Like the cell membrane, dialysis tubing has holes or pores that only allow certain things to pass through. A cell membrane similarly will only allow certain things to pass in and out.
Dialysis tubing is typically made from semi-permeable materials that allow small molecules and ions to pass through while blocking larger ones. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) dissociates into sodium ions (Na+) and hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution, both of which are small enough to pass through the dialysis tubing. Therefore, dialysis tubing is permeable to sodium hydroxide in its ionic form.
First of all, it is called Dialysis Tubing. Secondly, they are not 'Components', they are 'Contents'. Thirdly, only small molecules can pass through the semi-permeable membrane of the tubing, if using Diffusion. If using Osmosis, only water can pass through.
Yes they do; this is because a sodium ion has a small [atomic] size compared to the size of the pores of the dialysis tubing. Then we can look at the our phospholipid bilayer; why there they are can pass easily? So if in the phospholipid bilayer they can pass easily through, so at the dialysis tubing they also can easily pass.
Starch molecules are too large to pass through the pores of dialysis tubing. Dialysis tubing has small pores that restrict the passage of large molecules like starch while allowing smaller molecules like water and ions to pass through via diffusion.
Both the dialysis (cellulose) tubing and the small intestine are selectively permeable. Meaning they allow only some and not all substances to pass through. E.g. Glucose (small molecule of sugar) is able to pass through, however Starch (larger molecule of sugar) fails to do so. Hope this helps
No, dialysis tubing is not alive. It is made of a semi-permeable membrane, typically composed of synthetic materials, which allows certain molecules to pass through while blocking others. This tubing is used in laboratory settings to mimic biological processes, but it does not have any biological functions or characteristics of living organisms.
