Question

Write about the osmosis procees in potato experiment​

Answer 1

Answer:

Water will move from an area of less salt to more salt (more water to less water), and so when the potato is placed in the saltwater, all the water that is inside the potato (yes, plants have a lot of water inside of them, that's what gives a plant it's structure) moves out by osmosis.

Answer 2

Answer:

֎EXPERIMENT OF OSMOSIS USING POTATO֍

᪥AIM➛ To prove osmosis using potato.

᪥MATERIAL REQUIRED➛ One raw potato, one boiled potato, two beakers/bowls, two pins, water, sharp knife.

᪥PROCEDURE➛

⤷ Take the raw potato and boiled potato, peel off the skins.

⤷ Cut cube shaped cups from them.

⤷ Prepare a few ml.of saturated sugar solution.

⤷ Pour the sugar solution in the potato cup to a level.

⤷ Mark the level of sugar solution by piercing the pin.

⤷ Keep the potato cup in beaker.

⤷ Pour water in the beaker to half of the height of the potato cup.Ensure that the potato cup does not float or submerge in water.

⤷ Leave the arrangement for half an hour and note observations.Here water enters from beaker into potato cup.

⤷ Repeat the experiment by taking sugar solution in the beaker and water in the potato cup.Observe it after half an hour.

⤷ This time water from the potato cup enters beaker reducing the level of water in the potato cup.

᪥RESULT➛

⤷ By the above activities we can say that water always moved towards the sugar solution.

⤷ Such process in which water moves towards sugar solution due to process is called OSMOSIS.
