The Osmosis Experiment: Theory, Procedure, and Results

The video tutorial covers an osmosis experiment involving potato cells. It begins with an explanation of osmosis, using a diagram to illustrate the movement of water molecules through a partially permeable membrane. The experiment setup is detailed, including the equipment and materials needed. Catherine conducts the experiment by preparing potato cylinders, measuring their initial mass and length, and immersing them in sugar solutions of varying concentrations. After an hour, the changes in the potatoes' mass and length are recorded, highlighting the effects of osmosis. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the steps and results.
