Osmosis Investigation Aims and Objectives To determine the effect that varying salt concentration, in a solution, has upon the osmotic ability of potato chips of a given size. Scientific Background Knowledge Put simply osmosis is defined as the net movement of water molecules, across a selectively permeable membrane, from a dilute to a concentrated solution. It is a special form of diffusion because it can only involve water molecules. However, it is not an isolated …showed first 75 words of 2166 total…

…showed last 75 words of 2166 total…my results that the concentration of sucrose in beetroot tissue is approximately 0.5(m). I have drawn this conclusion from obtaining the results of : the percentage change for length was 0 at 0.4(m) and for the percentage change in mass was 0 at 0.6(m) , therefore I can reach the conclusion that the sucrose solution in beetroot is between 0.4 and 0.6. Consequently I can say that it is 0.5(m) as this is the middle integer (whole number) of both results.
