Colegio Real / Royal School Science Lab Manual Activity 2 Osmosis

The document describes an experiment to observe the movement of water into or out of grapes under different conditions by placing grapes in jars containing sugar solution, grape juice, or water and measuring their mass changes over 24 hours. Students are asked to predict mass changes, record results, and analyze whether osmosis occurred and if their predictions were correct.

You will observe the movement of water into or out of a grape under various conditions.

Materials

Balance
Grape juice
Grapes (3)
Unbreakable plastic jar or similar containers (3)
Sugar
Water
Paper towel
Procedure

1. Make a data table with four columns and three rows.


2. Fill one jar with a sugar solution. Fill a second jar with grape juice. Fill a third jar
with tap water. Label each jar with the name of the solution that it cintains.
3. Use a balance to find the mass of each of three grapes. Place one grape in each
jar, and put the lids on the jars.
4. Predict weather the mass of each grape will increase or decrease over time.
Explain your predictions.
5. After 24 h, remove each grape from its jar, and dry the grape gently with a paper
towel. Using the balance, find each grape’s mass again. Record your results.

Analysis

1. Identify. The solution in which osmosis occurred.


2. Evaluating Conclusions. How did you determine whether osmosis occurred in each
of the three solutions.
3. Evaluating hypotheses. Did the mass of each grape change as you had predicted?
Why or why not?
