concentration. Hypotonic solution is the solution with the lower salt concentration. My hypothesis is that the potato core will increase in size. When the solution is hypertonic‚ the potato will decrease in size making the potato hypotonic. Osmosis is really interesting‚ that is why I chose to write this report about it. Materials and Methods We first cut out six cores out of a potato. We trimmed them all to the same length using a razor. After we had cut them to the same size we weighed them using

Procedure: The first part of this lab involved the standardization of the base NaOH with potassium hydrogen phthalate‚ or KHP. First‚ about 400 mL of NaOH (10 M) were poured into the 600-mL beaker. This was used to fill the burette. The 50-mL burette was rinsed through twice with 5 mL of NaOH. Then‚ the burette was mounted on the ring stand using a burette clamp and filled to 0 mL. Some of the NaOH was drained to fill the tip of the burette. The initial volume of NaOH‚ rounded to two decimal places

Title: Potato Osmosis Abstract: In this experiment was designed to study the effect of a concentrated solution applied to white and sweet potatoes. The solution’s impact among the potatoes were to be either hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic. The potatoes were first cut into fries with a fry cutter‚ and then weighed after being cut. The white and sweet potatoes’ weights ranged from .005-.015 grams. A total of 18 sugar solutions are to be made over the course of 3 trials. In each trial‚ 6 different

Chapter 1 The Problem-And It’s Background Potato as an alternative battery for scientific calculator is the chosen topic of the researchers. The researchers thought of many topics but the topic about the scientific calculator get their attention. They thought that scientific calculator is very useful to students especially to 4th year students. A scientific calculator is a type of electronic calculator‚ designed to calculate problems in science‚ engineering‚ and mathematics. They have

distilled water‚ 0.4% NaCl‚ and 0.9% NaCl would all appear to be inflated and could burst. This is due to the fact that the solution is hypotonic to the potato‚ thus water is entering the cell. Meanwhile‚ the cells in the solutions 5% NaCl and 10% NaCl would have shriveled cells. This is because the solution is hypertonic and water is leaving the potato out into the solution.

Observing Osmosis in Potato Cells Planning Purpose: To observe the effect of osmosis on plant cells. Hypothesis: The higher the salt content of the water‚ the lower the mass of the potato. Variables: Independent: the salt percentage of the solution Dependent: the weight of the potato in grams Controlled: the amount of water the length of time between measurements the method of measuring the type of plant cells tested Equipment: (as seen on 2A Human Biology task sheet)

America’s Great Potato Baron Eric Schlosser’s biography “Fast Food Nation: Why the Fries Taste Good” explains how this invention started out of a simple potato by a man named John R. Simplot who was raised on a farm‚ un-educated and by his own account‚ left home at a young age. According to Eric Schlosser’s claim‚ “John Richard Simplot‚ America’s great potato baron‚ whose seemingly inexhaustible energy and willingness to take risk built an empire base on French fries” (Schlosser par. 2).

TOY: MR. POTATO HEAD! Since the time of my childhood I have been exposed to hundreds of toys and games. However‚ only a few stand out in my memory and even fewer still remain in my possession today. There are many toys in America‚ which are known by all ages‚ nationalities‚ and social classes. Toys such as Barbie‚ Legos‚ Cabbage Patch Kids‚ GI Joe‚ and many more are well known commodities‚ which have been in existence since before my time. Although there are numerous toys I can remember
