Eggs' Mass in Different Solutions
Hypothesis
Egg 1 in 150 mL of distilled water will undergo cytolosis.
Egg 2 in the 0.9% saline solution will undergo plasmolysis.
Egg 3 in 150 mL of corn syrup will undergo cytolosis.
Egg 4 in 150 mL of fountain water will undergo plasmolysis.
Materials
8 200 mL beakers
2 trays
600 mL vinegar (acetic acid)
9 g salt (sodium chloride)
1, 150 mL distilled water
150 mL corn syrup
piece wax paper
4 unfertilized eggs
triple balance beam
absorbent paper
150 mL fountain water (city water)

order to make the solution isotonic, more salt had to be added. Egg 3 was placed in a hypertonic solution of 150 milliliters of corn syrup. The amount of water was greater inside the egg than out. Therefore, water was diffused out of the egg by plasmolysis. Egg 3 was placed in 150 milliliters of fountain water, a hypotonic solution. It underwent cytolosis by the process of osmosis. All hypotheses were proven incorrect except for the hypothesis for Egg 1.
