    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

    Abstract The experiment was carried out to investigate at which point the potato has reached its isotonic environment. From the results‚ when the concentration increase to 0.3M‚ the mass of the potato slices decreased by -3.26%. We can conclude we see that as we increased the sucrose concentration it was a decrease in the percent change. Introduction All cells have membranes that are selectively permeable. In other words‚ they allow certain things in and certain substances are not allowed to

    tiny and can only be seen with a microscope‚ so you are going to use sticks of potato tissue in solutions that have different concentrations of dissolved substances to observe the effects of osmosis on living tissue. There are three basic relative concentrations of solutions. An isotonic solution has a concentration of dissolved particles equal to that of cells or body tissues; no net water flow occurs. A hypertonic solution has a lower concentration of water (higher concentration of dissolved particles)
