Dane Wilson 3/5/04 Experiment to find the reaction of Potato chips in a salt solution Aim: to find a reaction of potato chips in a salt solution. Hypothesis: I predict that the potato will change in mass. The difference will occur in accordance to the difference of concentration of the salt solution each potato chip is submerged in. The cause of this change in mass is called osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water through cells in plants. I make my prediction on the pretext that water diffuses from high concentration cells to low concentration cells. So if there is a lot of salt dissolved into water surrounding the organism (in this case a potato chip) then water particles from other cells are going to attempt to equal the concentration of water in the solution with the water concentration in the cells. Therefore most of the water from the cells of...
