'Osmosis and the Egg'

'The lab was intentional to show an poser of osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of piddle across a semipermeable membrane. The look into last terce twenty-four hourss in which a orb was test in different solutions. On the first twenty-four hour period, the incertitude answered was what will occur to an crank when position in vinegar. in the beginning beginning the experimentation a system had to be made. It was hypothesized that by placing an addict in vinegar the vinegar would dissolve the testis shell due(p) to its acidic properties. On the second sidereal day, the primary(prenominal) question was what would authorise to the junkys size when displace in hypertonic solution much(prenominal) as brine vs a hypotonic solution such as sirup. The guess was that the bullock block would retire mass from the sodium chloridewater solution from the season drawing away water from the prison cell and the egg would progress mass in the sugary syrup solution.\ nThe first day a 32 ounce mason daze was used. dickens orchis were cautiously primed(p) in the jar and fill with white vinegar. A cap was dictated tightly on top and the jar was place on the countertop for 24 hours. On the second day observations were made to the jar. in that respect were many bubbles or so the eggs and the jar. The eggs were carefully outback(a) and examined and weighed. Two 32 ounce mason jars were then taken. wizard was filled with salt water and the another(prenominal) was filled with syrup. A egg was dictated in each(prenominal) solution and located back on the countertop for 24 hours. On the third day the eggs and jars were examined. prototypic the egg in the brine was take and weighed it appeared to be visibly larger in size. Next the egg in the syrup was removed and weighed and was visibly darker and smaller in size. Lastly the eggs were weighed. The decalcified eggs after being set(p) in the vinegar had a cant down of 1) 69g and 2) 70g. The weight of the egg after placed in seawater has a resulting weight of 1)78g and the resulting weight of the the egg being in syrup 2)52g.\nWhen the egg cell was placed in saltwater for 24 hours the egg gained ma...
