Investigation of different molar salt solutions on the rate of osmosis in potato slices Section A. Planning and Predicting 1. Practical Procedure In this experiment I am going to try and find out whether or not osmosis occurs in potatoes, and the effect that different molar solutions of salt and water have on the potato. I will use five different molar solutions of salt and water: 0 (100% water), 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20. I will then study the effects on the potato by putting three different sized slices of potato into five test tubes containing the above solutions. I will use a small, a medium and a large slice of potato in all five test tubes of different molar solutions. Before putting the potatoes into the test tubes I will weigh each slice and record it. The potatoes will then be left to soak for thirty minutes before taking them out,...
