To Investigate The Affect Of Concentration Of Salt Solution On The Mass Of Potato Chips Aim: The aim of this investigation is to see whether the amount of salt solution affects the mass of the potato chip Hypothesis: In the solution below, water will diffuse from the dilute solution into the concentrated solution through the process of osmosis. Therefore the dilute solution level will fall and the concentrated level will rise When a substance such as salt dissolves in water, the substance's molecules stick with some of the water molecules, so the concentration of the water molecules decreases. When the water molecules are the same concentration on both sides of a semi permeable membrane and salt is dissolved into one of them, osmosis will occur as shown in the diagram below. Semi permeable membrane Water molecules Salt molecules Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi permeable membrane from a region of high water...
