Diffusion through the Membranes Sita Damaraju (Fellow) Professional Day at NJIT 16 February, 2011
2
Applications Biology of all Levels Chemistry
3
Diffusion A process that allows ions or molecules to move from a region higher concentration to a region of lower concentration until equilibrium is attained.
4
Vernier Experiment ◦ A conductivity probe will be used to monitor ions in solution and monitor its concentration over a period of time. ◦ AIM: Study the effect of concentration gradients on the rate of diffusion. Determine if the diffusion rate for a molecule is affected by the presence of a second molecule.
