Osmosis Investigation Aim My main aim in this experiment is to find out whether Osmosis occurs in a potato and also how it affects the potato in different mol solutions of sucrose and water. Equipment - Cutting tile - the support for the cutting of the potato Knife - to cut the potato Measuring cylinder - to measure the solutions Distilled Water - Part of the experiment Sucrose - Part of the experiment Potato - Part of the experiment Tissue Paper - to dry out the potatoes after osmosis takes place Cork Borer - to cut out potato cylinders Ruler - measure the length of the potato Tongs - for picking the potatoes after the Osmosis has taken place Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solution's molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially permeable membrane such...
