How Much Sugar Lab Report
The purpose of the lab is to find how much sugar is in a potato. I have found that my hypothesis “If I change the amount of sucrose in the solution, then percent change will be a negative percent and show me how much sugar is in a potato which is about 0.5g of sugar because increasing sucrose solutions outside the cell creates a hypertonic solution or hypotonic cell and the water inside the potato will go to the sugar outside the potato.” was proven wrong from the graph of my data which showed with a line that falls on zero that that is where it is isotonic and that is how much sugar is in the potato.

    Eight8 g of sugar were placed on the scale, and then transferred into the volumetric flask (Table 8 shows the calculations of the molecular weight, moles, mass, volume and molarity recorded before doing so). Distilled water was added to the sugar until a total of 25mL were in the flask. Then the flask was capped, and the solution was mixed together until the sugar was dissolved. Once dissolved, the solution was transferred into the glass beaker, and certain aspects were measured and recorded in table 9. Once this step was complete, 2.5 mL were removed from the solution, and diluted in the volumetric flask. The steps were then repeated using different amounts of the diluted solution each time .…

    The reason for this experiment was to figure out which solution would prevent the apples from browning the most and to determine if pH has an effect on the prevention of browning of the apples. My hypothesis stated that white grape juice would prevent the apples from browning the most. This hypothesis was refuted, lemon was actually the solution that prevented the browning of the apples the most. Before the apples were dipped in the solution, the average rating of the apples on a scale of 0 to 5, 0 being the least brown and 5 being the most, solution A, apple juice, was 0. The average rating on the apples going into solution B, lemon juice, was 0.…

    The way to get the full results of this lab was through the process of osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane into a more concentrated solution to reach an equilibrium. When regarding cells osmosis has three different terms that are used to describe their concentration. The first of these words is isotonic. Cells in an isotonic solution show that the water has no net movement and the amount of water that goes in is the same that goes out. Isotonic comes from the root iso, which means equal. This makes sense because the definition of isotonic is: same concentration. The second out of three words is hypotonic. Cells in a hypotonic solution make the water move into the cell to spread out the cells solutes to eventually reach an equillibrium. Hypotonic comes from the root word hypo, which means low/below. The actual definition for hypotonic is: less concentrated. Hypertonic is the last out of the three words. A cell in a hypertonic solution makes the water leave the cell to try to spread out the solutes outside to eventually reach an equillibrium. Hypertonic comes from the root word hyper, which means more/high. The definition of hypertonic is: more concentrated.…

    My hypothesis is: By changing the concentration of sugar, I think that the water will move from a high water concentration to a low concentration via osmosis. I predict that the more sugar concentration there is, the rate of osmosis will increase and therefore will have an effect on the results of the experiment.…

    We started setting up our experiment by measuring different molar solutions (0M, 0.25M, 0.5M, 0.75M and 1M) of sugar and putting them into separate bottles, along with one bag (12g) of yeast and 300ml of water. We then attached a tube going from the top of each bottle to separate test tubes which were entirely full of water and were placed upside down in a tub of water, stopping the tube from emptying and…

    Potato Osmosis Lab Report

    We started the lab by cutting the potato core length (44 mm). Each potato core are placed in test tubes. The test tubes have different salt concentration, test tube 1 has 0% salt concentration, test tube 2 has 0.625% salt concentration, test tube 3 has 1.25% salt concentration, test tube 4 has 2.5% salt concentration and test tube 5 has 5% salt concentration. The next day, we remove the potato core from the test tubes and measure their size. In test tube 1 with a 0% salt concentration, the potato core length after is 44 mm, the change in potato core length is 4 mm so the potato is hypertonic to that solution. In test tube 2 with a 0.625% salt concentration, the potato core length after is 42 mm, the change in potato length is 2 mm so the potato is hypertonic to that solution. In test tube 3 with a 1.25% salt concentration, the potato core length after is 39 mm, the change in potato length is -1 mm so the potato is…
