Liam Haggerty 11wd Investigation to show the percentage change in mass during osmosis when placing potatoe skin in sugar solutions. Aim: My main aim in this experiment is to find out if osmosis occurs in a potato, and how it affect the potato in different molar solutions of sucrose and water. Apparatus · Stop Clock - to time our experiment · Cutting tile - to cut the potato on · Knife - to cut the potato · 25cm Measuring cylinder - to measure the solutions · Distilled water - part of the experiment · sucrose - part of the experiment · Potatoes - part of the experiment · Tissue paper - to dry the potatoes after the osmosis takes place · Balance - to weigh the potatoes · Cork borer - to cut out potato cylinders Planning Before actually planning the experiment, I will do some research to find out about osmosis, and matters related to it, so that I can make predictions. And figure out...
