Egg Osmosis Experiment kit
- 2. PURPOSE To observe osmosis in a cell. 1. Place eggs in vinegar to remove shell. 2. Measure weight of egg using a balance. 3. Measure the size of the eggs using string and measuring tape.
- 3. PURPOSE 4. Place one egg in corn syrup, place the other egg in water. 5. Weigh and measure the eggs again.
- 4. HYPOTHESIS Water egg Weight: Increase Size: Increase Appearance: Same
- 5. HYPOTHESIS Corn Syrup Egg Weight: Same Size: Same Appearance: Brown
- 6. MATERIALS • Eggs • Balance • String & Measuring Tape • Corn Syrup • Water • Two beakers • Vinegar
- 7. OBSERVATION Before After Corn Syrup Egg Weight: 67 g Weight: 44 g Size: 16.1 cm Size: 13.2 cm Water Egg Weight: 77.4 g Weight: 91.9 grams Size: 16 cm Size: 17.5 Cm
- 8. OBSERVATION 2. After Syrup 24 1. After hours Vinegar 3.After Water 24 hours • Eggs looks Egg is squishy, • shriveled and Egg has sunk and grew large no shell smaller
- 9. CONCLUSION Water egg • Egg had lower concentration. • Water moved from high concentration to the lower concentration (egg). Corn Syrup egg • Egg had a higher concentration. • Water moved from high concentration (egg) to lower concentration (corn syrup).
- 10. CONCLUSION • Water egg Hypothesis Weight: Increase Size: Increase Appearance: Same Results Weight: Right Water egg Corn Syrup Size: Right egg Appearance: Right
- 11. CONCLUSION • Corn Syrup egg Hypothesis Weight: Same Size: Same Appearance: Brown Results Water egg Corn Syrup egg Weight: Wrong Size: Wrong Appearance: Right
