- The driving force for diffusion is
You correctly answered: b. the kinetic energy of the molecules in motion. - In diffusion, molecules move
You correctly answered: a. from high concentration to low concentration. - Which of the following dialysis membranes has the largest pore size?

Experiment Results
Predict Question:
Predict Question 1: The molecular weight of urea is 60.07. Do you think urea will diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane?
Your answer : c. No, not at all.
Predict Question 2: Recall that glucose is a monosaccharide, albumin is a protein with 607 amino acids, and the average
molecular weight of a single amino acid is 135 g/mole.
Which of the following will be able to diffuse through the 200 MWCO membrane?
Your answer : c. glucose only
Stop & Think Questions:
The reason sodium chloride didn't diffuse left to right is that
You correctly answered: c. the membrane pore size was too small.
Glucose is a six-carbon sugar. Albumin is a protein with 607 amino acids. The average molecular weight of a single amino
acid is 135 g/mole. There is no reason to run these solutes at the 20 MWCO because
You correctly answered: d. glucose and albumin are both too large to pass.
The rate of diffusion for urea
You correctly answered: b. is slower than that for sodium because urea is a larger molecule.

You scored 100% by answering 4 out of 4 questions correctly.
- The effect of increasing the concentration of sodium chloride from 9 mM to 18 mM in the left beaker was to
You correctly answered: b. increase the rate of diffusion. - Describe the difference between the rate of diffusion seen for sodium and urea.
You correctly answered: c. Urea diffused more slowly because it is larger than sodium. - Which of the following solutes did not pass through any of the membranes?
You correctly answered: b. albumin - When diffusion stops, we say the solution has reached
You correctly answered: a. equilibrium.
Review Sheet Results
- Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion.
Your answer:
size and concentration of solute. - Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare
with your prediction?
Your answer:
As predicted, Urea was too big to pass through the 20 MWCO membrane. - Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the
results compare with your prediction?
Your answer:
The glucose diffused through the 200MWCO membrane, while there was no diffusion of albumin as predicted. Albumin is
too big to pass through 200 MWCO membrane. - Put the following in order from smallest to largest molecular weight: glucose, sodium chloride, albumin, and urea.
Your answer:
Sodium chloride, Urea, Glucose, Albumin.
