    Osmosis in Potato Tissue Experiment  Background Information  Osmosis can be defined as the movement of water across a  semi-permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a  region of low water concentration.  The semi-permeable membrane allows small particles through it but does  not allow large particles such as sodium chloride. Osmosis will  continue until a state of equilibrium is reached i.e. there is no area  with a higher or lower concentration than another area

    Alcohol based fuels are used as alternatives to fuels that come entirely from non-renewable resources. The most common of these are ethanol and methanol. These two substances have a few similarities‚ but also significant differences. The similarities are so few that they can be listed concisely; just appearance and smell are similar for these two chemicals. If an individual were presented with samples of each of these chemicals‚ they would have to ignite it or consume it in order to tell the

    mol dm3 affect the osmolarity point of potato cells‚ where it is investigated how osmosis changes the weight of the potato cells‚ measured by the percentage change between the initial and final mass of the potato? Independent Variable: Increasing sucrose concentrations Dependant Variable: Mean percentage change in mass of potato cells All cells have a protective barrier‚ one which selectively allows substances to enter and exit the cell. This is known as a cell membrane. Some cells are semi-permeable
