    Natalia Wierzchon A.P. Biology Lab: 1. Osmosis 09/10/2010 I. Introduction a. Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the diffusion process of water‚ osmosis‚ as well as create an understanding of water potential‚ the basis of osmosis. The experiment proved how water molecules in a solution are able to move from an area of low solute concentration‚ high water concentration‚ to an area of high solute concentration‚ low water concentration‚ diffusing “down” the water gradient.

    OSMOSIS ASSESSMENT TASK Introduction Osmosis is the net movement of water particles from an area where they are in high concentration to an area of low concentration‚ down a concentration gradient. Hypothesis: Will a high concentration of salt solution affect the mass of a potato chip? Variables Controlled variables: -The sizes of the potato chips. Bigger size of potato chips will weigh heavier and the smaller potato chips will weigh lighter‚ if we don’t use the same size of potato chips

    The results provide evidence that when there was an increase in the sodium chloride concentration the mass of the potato prisms declined. At the zero percent concentration there was an increase of mass by 1.75%‚ from there the 1%‚ 3%‚ 5% and 10% begun on a downward trend with the percentage change in mass declining. The graph was on a steady decline from 0% being the highest point with a change of mass of 1.75% finishing with the 10% solution on a decline of -12.28%. From observing the scatter plot
