I am carrying out this investigation to try and determine whether osmosis will increase or decrease the mass of a potato chip when the concentration of glucose is altered in it's surroundings.

Possible things that could affect my experiment are the size of each potato chip, I will attempt to make sure that all potato chips are of approximately the same mass by weighing each potato chip before the experiment is commenced and they will all be the same size as I will cut them from the potato using one cork borer, this will also help me determine the change in mass when placed in the glucose solution. Also, the investigation could be affected by the environment in which it is practised in; the temperature of the room could affect the experiment as this would cause the particles to change speed, for example if the temperature was raised for some...
