This document describes an experiment on egg osmosis. Eggs were placed in vinegar, corn syrup, and water to observe how their size and weight changed over time due to osmosis. The corn syrup egg got smaller and lighter as water moved out, while the water egg got larger and heavier as water moved in. The purpose was to observe osmosis in cells by measuring changes in eggs exposed to different solutions.

Mil Mendoza
8-16

2. PURPOSE
To observe osmosis in a cell
Place egg in vinegar
Measure the egg’s using
string and measuring tape
Place the egg in corn syrup ,
place the other egg in water
Weight and measure the
egg again

3. HYPOTHESIS(corn syrup)
Corn syrup egg (bob)
I think it will get bigger
The weight will increase
It will look brownish

4. HYPOTHESIS (water)
Water egg (steve)
I think it will get smaller
The weight will be less
Size will less

5. MATERIALS
Egg
Balance
Measuring tape and
string
Corn syrup
Water
2 beakers
vinegar

After Vinegar After Corn syrup After Water ( 24
(24 hours ) hours )
1.Egg look ‘s bigger . 1. There is bubble rising . 1.No more shell’s and it’s
squishy.
2.Egg Shriveled up. 2.There are more bubble’s
and the egg start to rise . 2.After letting the egg sit
on the corn syrup, the egg
3.Egg still rise ,the foam shriveled up.
forming at the top .
3.After sitting in water

8. CONCLUSION(Water egg)
Water egg got larger
Water moved into the
egg
The egg had a lower
concentration than the
water
The water moved from
higher concentration to
lower concentration

9. CONCLUSION(Corn syrup egg)
Corn syrup egg got smaller
Water moved out of the egg
This was due to the fact that
the egg had a higher
concentration of water
The water moved from
higher concentration(egg)to
lower concentration (corn
syrup)
