  1. Egg Osmosis Experiment Joseph Terrado 8-17

  2. Purpose • To observe osmosis in a cell. • 1) Place eggs in vinegar to remove shell • 2)Measure weight of eggs using a balance • 3)Measure size of eggs using string and measuring tape • 4)Place one egg in corn syrup and the other in water • 5)Weight and measure the eggs again

  3. Hypothesis Corn Syrup Egg • Corn syrup egg • Egg get heavier because corn syrup is thick • Size will get thicker • Colour of egg might turn brownish

  4. Hypothesis Water Egg • Water egg • Turn it a little bit pale • Weight would be same • Size would be same

  5. Materials • Eggs • Beakers • Corn Syrup • Vinegar • Balance • String • Measuring Tape • Water

  6. Observations

  7. Observations • Bubbles go up at top from egg • Floating, more bubbles and foam • Foam at top and more bubbles • 24 hours later, egg turned soft and squishy • corn syrup egg =shrivelled, water egg= puffy

  8. Conclusion of Water Egg • got larger • water moved in the egg • due to fact that egg had lower concentration than water • Water moves from higher concentration to lower concentration(egg)

  9. Conclusion of Corn Syrup Egg • got smaller • water moved out of egg • due to fact that egg had lower concentration then water • water moved from higher concentration(egg)to lower concentration

  10. Hypothesis • Corn syrup egg after experiment • Hypothesis was wrong • Got smaller by size and weight • Thought egg would stay same • Shrunk • Water in egg came out into corn syrup to balance water, in and out of egg • Water egg after experiment • Hypothesis was correct • Egg got bigger and weight • Water entered egg because low concentration
