In this lab, I felt like we succeeded in achieving the desired results of the lab. We had very distinct evidence that diffusion happened in the jello as the HCI receded in a seemingly perfect cube within the jello cube. I thought that my group encountered difficulties when we were trying to cut the jello cubes into perfect cubes as it was hard to fit these 3 cubes in the small block of jello we had. The jello cubes were thus not perfect (some had small irregularities in their shapes). This lab gave me valuable experience in creating and observing diffusion as we were able see diffusion happening before our eyes. If I were to repeat this lab again a different time, I would like to have a device that would create perfect cubes. Also, I would like to make the time in which the jello cubes were in the hydrochloric acid to be exactly the same (possibly have three people taking them out at the same time) thus making our observations and results more accurate.
