LAB DAY 1: GUMMY BEAR OSMOSIS 

Diffusiond: is the equilibrium of two substances in the same conteiner.

Osmosis: Diffusion of water molecules in and out of a cell (surrounded by a membrane that only allows water through). 

There are three types of osmosis: 
  • Isotonic: equal concentration .
  • Hypertonic: more concentration. 
  • Hipotonic: less concentration.



Experiment: we have put three different gummy bears into water solutions.
  • Red: in salt water.
  • White: normal water.
  • Green: normal water 

My hypothesis: 

About the water: 
  • Red: the water is going  to get a littel bit red.
  • White: the water is going to became sweety.
  • Green: the water is going to became sweety.
About the gummy:
  • Red: Is going to be smaller because the water is hypertonic so it absorves the liquid os the gummy and the gummy wnts smaller and it became less soft.
  • Green: I think it is not going to change.
  • White: I think it is not going to change.

Results:
  • White: Like the water is hipotonic it has gone inside the gummmy bear.
  • Red: It has lost water because the salt water absorved allmost all the water of the gummy bear. And it came smaller.
  • Green: More or less it is isotonic so it take the same side.
