The Incredible Egg

The purpose of this lab was to find out what would happen over time to weight of an egg after we scrubbed the eggshell off in a little spot. We then soaked it in water for 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 24 hours and measure how much the weight went up. Once we came back the next day we measured them after 24 hours. In the same day we put the syrup in the cup instead of water and we measured how much it weighed after 10 minutes, 30 minutes and 24 hours. As we did this with the water the weight of the egg went up because the water soaked into the egg and made it heavier. With the syrup it seeped into the egg and made it weigh less because the sugar in it would dry out the egg and make it weigh less. It done this because it wants equilibrium and that is where there is the same amount of water on each side of the plasma membrane, so it dried up the water to make all the water in the cup the same. …show more content…

We had a little trouble trying to get the egg shell off the egg because it was still a little hard on a few spots of the egg and the hard spots would not come off without breaking the egg. We also had trouble with the egg and getting it out of the cup because me and my partner had big hands and we could not get our whole hand in the cup the get the egg out of the cup. When we did get our hand in the cup and got the egg we could not get our hand out of the egg. That is the only problems we had with this lad and all the materials we used during this lad. Use the cup to put the egg in and to test what would happen to the egg, use water to make the egg swell up, use syrup to make the egg shrivel, the egg was the thing that was tested on, the scale was to weigh the egg in each test, the weight cups was to put the egg in so it could be weighed without it rolling

Fill beaker with water Use the disposable pipette to place water in the graduated cylinder until the unidentified object would be completely submerged in water Record what the measurement of water in milliliters before placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder Gently place the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder Record the measurement of the water in milliliters after placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder Subtract the measurement of water in milliliters before placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder from the measurement of the water in milliliters after placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder, this is the volume of the unidentified object Record the volume (the answer you got in step 10) of the unidentified object in the data table Weigh the unidentified object on the scale, this is the mass of the unidentified object Record that number in the data table Calculate the density of the object by dividing the mass by the volume and rounding it to the proper significant figure, Record the density of the unidentified object in the data table Repeat the lab 2 more times and with each experiment record the data in the chart under the correct trial number corresponding with the correct

The unit we just concluded is called Bees. Bees was all about finding the area of shapes, using trigonometric functions and/or the Pythagorean theorem to find the side length(s) of a triangle, using trigonometric inverses to find the angles of a triangle, using triangles to see what polygon has the largest area when the perimeter of the polygons was 300 feet, and finding the volume, surface area, and lateral surface area of three dimensional prisms. A polygon is a two dimensional figure with at least three straight sides. Perimeter is the distance around a polygon. To find the perimeter of a shape, you need to add the lengths of all the sides of the shape.

Not everyone is reliable, when it comes to the telling's of their first year of high school, each member of the group tell their side of the story, but not all are trustworthy. Fallow their stories in the 2009 novel by Caroline Pignat, Egghead. Where four young teens entering their first year of high school and the bulling that follows them from elementary. When reading Egghead, you are faced with the three main protagonists, Katie, Devan and Will, each one faces a different problem. Katie, Devan and Will tell their side of the story with varying degrees of the truth.

On our first day, the egg in the vinegar increased in size and the eggshell dissolved. This happened because of the calcium carbonate in the shell of the egg and the acid in the vinegar. This is hypotonic because it causes the water to move through in the egg which causes the egg to get bigger in size. The mass of the first cup was 13.1g and the mass of the raw egg was 59.3g. After the egg and vinegar experiment, the mass of the new cup was 11.3g and the mass of the “shell-less” egg was 92.2g. On our second day, the egg in the corn syrup decreased in size.

In this egg drop project, a container was built to house one egg and was then dropped at various heights. The purpose of this lab was to find how impact time affected the force with which an object, the egg container, hits another surface as the momentum moves to zero. Our hypothesis states that if the impact time is stretched longer then the force exerted on the egg would decrease, making the egg less likely to break. The independent variables for the egg drop project was the height at each drop; the dependent variables were impact time and survival of the egg. The controls were mass, design of the container, and the egg.

Along with that, the egg got bigger and was expanding. The egg and our liquid was trying to make it have equalibrum. This shows osmosis occurred as it went into the cell membrane. As the egg was soaked in the Starbucks drink it got bigger and it started to change to a light brown. It seems the longer it socked in the liquid the rougher the cell membrane got.

The Effect of Sugar Concentration on CO2 Production by Cellular Respiration in Yeast Introduction In this lab, our main focus was to find how sugar concentration affect yeast respiration rates. This was to simulate the process of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process that cells use to transfer energy from the organic molecules in food to ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate). Glucose, CO2, and yeast (used as a catalyst in this experiment) are a few of the many vital components that contribute to cellular respiration.

Although the narrator only found the empty shell, the author clearly states that the narrator "found a robin’s egg". A robin 's egg is fairly easy to distinguish from other local birds eggs due to its speckled surface and blue color. Thus the character did know what was in the egg, much like they know what is in their heart.

The purpose of this lab was to change pennies from copper to silver to gold, like alchemists have attempted to do in history. Through the data and observations gathered throughout this experiment, it can be concluded that the pennies were not changed into a different element. For example, the density of the penny from 2005; which was the penny that was experimented on to see whether or not it could turn into silver; was 4.62 g/cm3 before the experiment and 4.89 g/cm3 by the end of the experiment. If this copper penny really would have turned into silver, then the density of the penny would be 10.49 g/cm3; which is the density of silver; by the end of the experiment. The penny may have turned silver in color, but this was only because it was plated in the zinc that was added to the beaker of water in the experiment.

Where we had to make a shield around the egg to prevent it from cracking. As Adrianne and I did the project together I noticed how uninterested she was in the work. The project was a large part of our final grade and I was determined to get a high score, but apparently, she didn’t care much about what the final grade would be and did very little.

Rubbing, or isopropyl, alcohol is at least 70% alcohol and therefore less than 30% water. This should cause water to move from the egg into the solution, and the egg should lose mass. In addition, the egg may appear white and
