Investigation to compare the water potential between potato chips and carrot chips Introduction For this investigation I will be investigating and comparing the water potential between carrot chips and potato chips. This Preliminary work which I did before this (Investigation to determine the effects on potato chips in different concentration of sucrose solution) will help me complete this with the minimal errors possible. I will develop my ideas further from what I did from the preliminary work and adapt it to help me complete this investigation. Aim The aim of this investigation is to carry out a suitable experiment, using preliminary work, to compare the water potential of potato chips and carrot chips as fair as possible. Background Information I already know that: The main thing is that osmosis takes place and because of this water moves down a water potential gradient. Water moves out of a cell if the water potential is lower outside the cell and...
