Aim: To find out how osmosis occurs and differentiates using various concentrations of water.
Variables:
The variables which we could investigate are:
*Size of the potato chip. This will change the surface area and volume of the potato chip as the higher the volume, the higher the capacity
*The concentration of the solution. The higher the solution is concentrated in water the more water particles there will be in the solution
*Different potatoes. This will

the room temperature and humidity.
An accurate result would have looked like this:
If I were to do this experiment again I could maybe measure one of the other variables which could affect osmosis. Also, whilst recording my results, maybe I should have increased the degree of accuracy. Instead of rounding the weight of the chips to 1 decimal place, maybe I could have measured it to 3 decimal places, proving me with even further reliable results.
