Aim: - To investigate the effect on potato chips in different concentration of sugar solutions. Introduction: - Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules from a region where there is a higher concentration of water molecules to the region where there is lower concentration of water molecules. The water molecues move through a partially permeable membrane, which allows the smaller molecules to pass but not the big ones. The diffusion of molecules from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration until the concentration of water molecules has become same in both the areas. Precautions to make the test fair: For a fair test certain factors had to be kept in mind. I decided to choose sugar solutions of different concentrations so that I get different sets of result containing information about the change in mass, change in length and the mass and length of potato chips after the...
