Michael's egg osmosis experiment
1.
2. To observe osmosis in a cell.
Place eggs in vinegar to remove the shell.
Measure weight of the egg using a balance.
Measure the size of the eggs using string and
measuring tape.
Place one egg in corn syrup, place the other egg in
water.
Weigh and measure the eggs again.

4. Corn Syrup Egg (bob)
Weight, size, and looks
Weight- I think the
weight will decrease.
Size- I think it’s going to
be smaller.
Looks- It will become
smaller.
5. Water Egg (steve)
Weight, size, and
looks
Weight- I think the
will increase.
Size- I think it’s going
to be larger than the
original size.
Looks- It will become
bigger.

7. There are bubbles.
There are more bubbles the
eggs are floating.
The eggs are still floating and
foam floating on the top.
It’s no longer have a shell and
it’s squishy.
After sitting in Corn Syrup for
24 hrs. the egg looks
shrivelled up and smaller.
After sitting in water for 24
hrs. the egg looks larger and
heavier.
8. Water Egg
Water egg got larger because water
moved into the egg. Why?
This was due to the fact that the egg
had a lower concentration of water than
the water.
The water moved from higher
concentration (water) to lower
concentration (egg).
My Hypothesis in Water Egg is correct
in Size, Weight, and looks.
9. Corn Syrup Egg
Corn syrup egg got smaller because
water moved out of the egg. Why?
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).
My Hypothesis in Corn Syrup Egg is
correct in Size, Weight, and looks.
