Tyler Watts. Experiment to investigate how equal masses of potato are effected in different concentrations of 1molar sucrose soloution. Aim: To investigate if osmosis occurs in potatoes, and if so, how it affects potatos of equal mass (2.5g) in different molar solutions of sucrose and water. Apparatus: -Cutting tile which will be used to cut the potato on. -Knife which will be used to peel the potato with and to cut to correct mass. -Burette which will be used to measure the solutions acurately. -Distilled water to make up solutions as part of the experiment sucrose to make up part of the experiment -Potatoes to cut into equal mass and observe what happens to them when left in differing concentrations of sucrose solution. -Tissue paper which will be used to dry the potatoes after the -Electronic Balance to weigh the potatoes acuratley. -Cork borer which will be used to cut out potato cylinders. -Boiling tubes to put 20ml of differing...
