Research Question: What is the osmotic pressure of the average potato? To answer the research questions, potato cylinders were cut out using cylindrical cuters, and these samples were then placed in beakers containing various concentrations of sodium chloride overnight. Each cylindrical potato sample was weighed and measured before being placed in the beaker. The scientists then would take the sample potato after being soaked overnight and weigh them to see if the solution they were soaked in to had an affect on them. This gives the difference between the weights before and after being soaked, thus providing information to determine the osmotic concentration of potatoes. The tools we used were a large potato, a scale, a hollow metal cylinder, a scalpel, distilled water, ten beakers, two differend colored white board markers, a measuring cup, a lab spoon, sodium chloride, paper, a glass rod, and a paper towel.
