Gummy bear Osmosis

 Aim:

I want to find out what happens when gummy bears are put in liquids.

Method:

Equipment

  • Salt water (Sodium Chloride)
  • Normal water 
  • Sugar water (Sucrose)
  • Gummy bears
  • Two Petri dishes
  • Marker pen
  • Electronic Scale
Instructions

  1. Get your equipment
  2. Wear safety glasses
  3. Using a marker pen,write your name and conditions and the weight of the gummy bear
Do the experiment 


Results:

Initial weight(g)0.0820.0780.0820.077
Final weight(g)2.392.945.814.09
Difference1.572.625.284.03
The water gummy gained most weight because the water has smaller sugar molecules so then they can pass through the gummy bear easier while sugar molecules are bigger so they cant pass through as much as the water.
