    Concentration of Sucrose Solution affects the Mass of the Potato Chip Aim To find out how the concentration of sucrose solution affects the mass of the potato chip left in the solution for one day. Water Potential: The water potential of a solution is a measure of whether it is likely to lose or gain water molecules from another solution. A dilute solution, with its high proportion of free water molecules, is said to have higher water potential than a concentrated solution, because water

    light passing through a liquid bends or refracts. The refractometer is a tool. It is used to help you select higher quality of foods containing more vitamins and minerals. They are also used to determine the concentration of dissolved solids in a solution. Cooking oil, molasses, syrup, and other thick liquids require a refractometerqcalibrated to read 30-90 Brix. Refractometer also is used in wine making. (Harrill, 1998) refractometer is also used to test to quality of fruits and vegetables. A hydrometer

    concentration of sucrose increases the mass of potato will be decrease due to its temper is to make an equivalent concentration between the solution and potato. For instance, in the graph that above shows the first one on x-axis is the highest mass of potato that spent 5 days in distilled water. On the other hand, the fourth one is the lowest mass, which represents 4M sucrose solution of potato. Moreover, the data proves my prediction, as water molecules from higher sucrose solution of potato moves

    submerged in sucrose solution Rebekah Schmitz Introduction: Diffusion explains the passive movement of materials into and out of the cell due to the presence of a concentration gradient from a high to low concentration across a membrane (Choinski and Karafit 2015). In this experiment, we studied the effects of differing concentrations of sucrose solutions on samples of potato material over time. This experiment focused on the effects of tonic solutions such as hypertonic and hypotonic solutions. When a

    “Deshelled” Chicken Eggs Martekka Crawford India Williams Desiree Counts Mark Beckford Biology 1611-Sec 348 Dr. M. Jones September 17, 2015 Georgia Perimeter College- Decatur Introduction The osmolarity of a solution is the concentration measured of a solute. To determine the concentration of a solution, one must first understand what osmosis is and how it works. Osmosis is the spontaneous passage or diffusion of water or other solvents through a semipermeable membrane according to the Britannica Encyclopedia

    For a solution to be Isotonic cells are placed in water, so they neither gain or lose water through osmosis because the concentration of solutes in the cell are equal to the solutes outside of the selectively permeable membrane. (Jarod Saucedo, 2012). Although isotonic solutions neither gain or lose water Hypertonic Solutions on the other hand loses water by osmosis and shrink, this is when osmosis uses diffusion.

    determine what is the concentration of the unknown solution along with what concentration would be more isotonic to the chicken egg? Hypothesis If we placed our chicken egg into a higher percentage of sucrose solution for a set period of 60 minutes then the egg will gain weight. If the egg gained weight then the sucrose solution it was placed in had a low concentration that would make it hypotonic. If the egg loses weight then sucrose solution it was placed in had a high concentration that made

    mass of samples immersed in sucrose solutions of different concentrations for 24 hours? The concentrations of sucrose solution are 0.0mol 〖dm〗^(-3), 0.2mol 〖dm〗^(-3), 0.4mol 〖dm〗^(-3), 0.6mol 〖dm〗^(-3), 0.8mol 〖dm〗^(-3), and 1.0 mol 〖dm〗^(-3). Hypothesis: When plant tissues are immersed in sucrose solutions of different concentration, the cells will gain or lose water by osmosis and therefore change in size and mass. If the potato samples are immersed with hypertonic solution, the mass of samples will
