The time course (kinetics) of water movement will now be followed more carefully. You will use the sticks and solutions kept from the previous section (above). These have reached equilibrium with their respective solutions. At the initial time, you will purposely move the sticks equilibrated in the 0.5 M solution to the 0.0 M solution and vice versa. You will then repeat the data collection at five-minute intervals. 1. Quickly but carefully blot and weigh the sticks from each equilibration solution. Record this initial weight in the laboratory record under the heading for the OTHER solution. 2. Put the sticks in their NEW solution (the one under which their initial weight is recorded). Incubate with swirling for five minutes. 3. Remove the sticks, blot, and reweigh. Return the sticks to the solution for another five minutes. Note: do not count the time when the sticks are out of their solutions as incubation time. 4. Repeat step 3 until there is no further weight change in either of the two groups of sticks. 5. AT HOME, make the calculations and plots requested in the laboratory record.
