2. Purpose
To observe osmosis in a cell
Place egg in Vinegar
Measure weight of the egg
using a balance
Measure the size of the
egg
Use string and measuring
tape
Place one egg in corn syrup
place other egg in water.
Weigh and measure the
eggs again
4. Hypothesis (corn)
Corn Syrup Egg

5. Hypothesis (water)
The egg will weigh the
same
The egg will look the
same
The egg will not grew
6. Observation
Corn syrup Before After Water egg Before After
egg
Weight 67 g 44 g Weight 77.4 91.9
Size 16.1 cm 13.2 Size 16 cm 17 cm
7. 3 Visual Observation
There’s bubble rising in the egg when it is placed on
the vinegar
There is more bubble rising and the egg is floating
It doesnt have a shell and its slimy or squishy
After sitting on corn syrup for 1 day the egg looks

egg
This was due to the
fact
The egg had lower
concentration and
The water have higher
concentration
9. Conclusion (Corn)
Corn syrup
Got smaller
Water moved out the
egg
This was due to the
fact
The egg have higher
concentration
The corn syrup have
