Elliot Smith 15th October 2001 AT1: Osmosis AT1: To investigate the effect of sucrose solution on osmosis. Aim: Osmosis is the change of water from a weak solution to a strong solution. We are going to try and establish osmosis in potato chips by using different concentrated sucrose solutions with H2O (water): 0.0 mol sucrose 0.2 mol sucrose 0.4 mol sucrose 0.6 mol sucrose 0.8 mol sucrose 1.0 mol sucrose Prediction: If I changed the amount of sugar I predict that the potato will be lighter because osmosis will be increased. If I changed the amount of light, then I predict that nothing will happen because osmosis does not need light. If I change the volume of sucrose in the water, I predict that the more sucrose present, the lighter the potato. I have chosen to change the volume of sucrose. Apparatus: 6x test tubes 4x potatoes 1x bore 1x scalpel 1x pepite 1x ruler 1x scales 6x different concentrated solutions Method: I am going to...
