Introduction and method of experiment on: Investigating the effects of changing salt concentration on osmosis in potato tissue

Investigating the effect of changing salt concentration on osmosis in potato tissue Introduction I am going to investigate the effects on the weight of a 5 x 30mm King Edward potato chip when osmosis has occurred. Osmosis is the transfer of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. To do this I am going to put the chips in different salt concentrations, and compare the weight …showed first 75 words of 590 total…

…showed last 75 words of 590 total…correct salt solution in the test tubes 6.<Tab/>Place all the chips in at the same time, and start the stop-clock 7.<Tab/>After the 20 Minutes, I will take out all the chips roughly at the same time, and dry off the excess water with a paper towel 8.<Tab/>Weigh the chips after to see if your experiment has worked, and record your results.
