Osmosis: Potato Cores in Sucrose Solutions

This is a simulation. You will soak potato cores in six sugar solutions for 24 hours and find out which way water moves.

To move a core, drag it. Or tap it, then tap where it should go. With a keyboard, use Tab and Enter.

Weigh each core before it goes in a beaker. After 24 hours, blot each core dry on the paper towel before you weigh it again.

You can redo any step. Nothing is saved or sent. Reloading the page clears your work, so copy your data at the end.

This is an illustrative teaching model. Real potatoes vary.
