    Using Sucrose Solutions to Determine Osmolarity of Potato Tubers Based on Weight By Thomas Pelikan Biology 200A Section 004 Kimberly Schmidt October 2‚ 2012 Abstract: In this experiment we were trying to determine the osmolarity of potato tubers by weighing them before and after incubating them in solutions of sucrose with varying molarities. To find the osmolarity we took a potato and used a cork borer to obtain seven samples of potato tubers. We then prepared seven beakers with concentrations

    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

    Potato Osmosis Introduction: A shipwrecked sailor is stranded on a small desert island with no fresh water to drink. They know they could last without food for up to a month‚ but if they didn’t have water to drink they will be dead within a week. Hoping to postpone the inevitable‚ their thirst drives them to drink the salty seawater. They are dead in two days. Why do you think drinking seawater killed the sailor faster than not drinking any water at all? Today we explore the cause of the sailor’s

    What is osmosis? Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a semi permeable membrane. Why is it important? It is important to know what Osmosis is‚ and to understand it so that we understand what we are measuring‚ and so that we can use this understanding to apply to other situations so that we can gain further knowledge. We can also use this understanding to analyse our results. What we will do: We will put potato pieces of similar sizes in to test tubes of different concentrations

    concentration on osmosis in potato. Introduction: 1. The purpose of doing this lab is to observe the effects of various solute concentrations on osmosis in a potato. 2. During osmosis‚ water moves from the side of the membrane where they are most concentrated to the side where they are less concentrated. If the concentration is equal on both sides‚ there will be no movement. 3. I hypothesize that the mass of the potato will decrease as the salt in the solution increases. This

    Introduction The movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane is the process of osmosis. If there is a solute and a solvent‚ each containing different concentration levels‚ then the water would move along its concentration gradient until each side of the membrane are equal. The water moves because the membrane is impermeable to the solute and the solute concentrations may differ on either side of the membrane. Water molecules may move in and out of the cell‚ but there is no net diffusion

    Controlled Assessment: Osmosis of a Potato [pic] Osmosis: Osmosis is the movement of substances through a partially/semi permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration to balance of the concentration of the two sides. Biological membranes do allow water to pass through‚ but water will have no net movement unless osmosis takes place. Preliminary Method I have chosen to investigate the factor of the weight of potato strips after set amounts of time
