Mass Of Egg Lab Report

620 Words3 Pages

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. This happened because the corn syrup contains mostly sugar. This is hypertonic because the corn syrup has a high concentration of dissolved molecules of sugar and the water moved out of the egg. The mass of the cup was 10g and the mass of the egg was 59.7g. The percent change in mass of egg from day 1 to day 2 was 55.48%. …show more content…

This is isotonic because there were no movement of water and the water molecules were only moving inside the egg instead of moving out of the egg. The mass of the day 2 cup was 11.3g and the mass of the egg was 149.3 g. The percent change in mass of egg from day 2 to day 3 was 35.25%. On our fourth day, the egg in the lemonade increased in size and it gained more mass. This is because of the acid from the lemonade juice that made the egg enlarged. The mass of the cup was 10g and the mass of the egg was 106.4g. The percent change in mass of egg from day 3 to 4 was

Conclusion: Compare Trial 1 and Trial 2. The Trial 1 change in mass are 12.5g, however Trial 2 changes in mass is 1.2g. The Trial 1 change in mass is more than Trial 2. And I think the Low of Conservation of Mass violated in the Trial 1 is can be exist. Because the Trial 1 actually the soda with vinegar have Chemical reactions occur and chemical

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.

A egg's membrane is semi permeable this means it'll only allow specific molecules pass through it in the case of the vinegar it will only allow the water molecules to pass through. When we place the egg that is swollen into the corn syrup the opposite effect happens the water will travel through the membrane and into the corn syrup this happens because there is an imbalance in the molecules. he corn syrup has very few water molecules but lots of sugar molecules but the egg has lots of water molecules but the egg has lots of water molecules and only a few sugars, proteins and electrolytes. All the molecules want to be in equal proportions on either side of the membrane but only water is capable of moving through the membrane. So, instead the water moves from where there is a low amount of other molecules to where there is a lot more this means that the water leaves and goes into the syrup as the water leaves the egg the egg shrivels and shrinks.

The egg contained less water before the vinegar solution causing the egg to take in water. When the egg was placed in the distilled water, it grew in mass. For each solution in the lab, state whether it was hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic. Explain how you know.

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.

A plastic bag was placed on top of the beaker. After exactly 24 hours the egg changed noticeably. It increased in size and weighed 0.7 g more than it did before submersion. Its circumference also grew from 15.2 cm to 16.8 cm.

Also, the pictures above show how the egg changed from being tight and solid to being flexible. The observations also say that the egg felt like a water balloon and was full of water inside. Overall, the egg greatly shrunk in size. Finally, when the egg was placed in corn syrup, it floated on the surface of the solution. This was because the egg floated in solutions hypertonic to its inside.

From this \ experiment, it can be determined if these solutions were hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic. Going into this experiment, it can be expected for the weight of the egg to decrease as the solution has greater amounts of sucrose, making the solution hypertonic meaning the weight of the egg will

Hypothesis- If an egg is placed in water or sucrose, then the egg will become hypotonic compared to the water. Since there is a higher concentration of solute inside the egg than outside of it, the water will try to form an equilibrium with the egg and outside water. With the sucrose egg, water will move out of the egg because the sucrose has more solute than the egg, making the egg hypotonic to the sucrose. Background-This experiment involves the process of osmosis.

An egg is used to show osmosis on a bigger scale because it is similar to an actual cell. Therefore, osmosis is present in the lab through an egg and many solutions are added to show the movement of water in and out of the cell. To start, the egg had a hard shell and a white outer layer. In the beginning, the egg had a mass of 54.04g. Then, it was put into a solution of vinegar, and the shell dissolved after a few days.

Osmosis Lab Report Introduction: The investigation that I took part in this marking period was titled “An Egg-citing Activity”. In this experiment, I further explored the contents and aspects of osmosis. I also looked more closely at the differences and similarities between osmosis and diffusion. The purpose of the investigation was to examine a raw egg, classified as a large cell, after it had been placed in vinegar for two days and then put in different liquids. To put this into real life terms, the question that was used for this experiment was, how do drinks that we consume affect the cells in our body?

9.3% of the united states are diagnosed with diabetes, Diabetes is a metabolic disease where the pancreas can not produce insulin to keep the glucose at baseline level. Patients with diabetes have to take insulin shots to allow the glucose to be transported to the cells, if the glucose levels are bellow baseline patients have to take sugar tablets. In experiments we performed in class we have understood how insulin and glucose effect the body, the egg experiment allowed us to understand how sugar effects the water in are body, In diagrams we drew it showed us how sugar entered the cell using insulin. The egg experiment showed us how water reacts in the presence of sugar, sugar cant get through semipermeable membranes, which is the outside of the egg is made of.

The hypothesis we came up with for this project was that in the distilled water there wouldn't be no change in the potato, we wouldn’t see a gain or loss with the water sitting in the beaker. The beaker with the 30% Sucrose and Distilled water we predicted that there was going to be weight gain to the potato. And for the distilled water with the 30% sucrose and we predicted weight loss. But the results came out to be the first bag content being isotonic the second bag came out to be hypotonic and lastly the result came out to be

Think of it like this, adding salt to the water makes it like an ocean which is easier to float and swim in than just normal/ distilled water. This is because salt makes water denser. When salt water gets denser, the easier it would be for objects to float on it. My hypothesis was correct. The water did go inside the egg, but the ones with least salt increased the most, unless the egg was the smallest and it had enough space to take in a lot of extra water.
