... . To keep these two variables fair in the experiment I must: 1: Keep the potato samples the same length (5cm). This is because if one potato sample is 4cm long and one is 6cm long then the 6cm long sample will have a larger surface area and osmosis will occur much more quickly. Also I will try and keep the surface area the same as if ... to a minimum. 3: Stop the evaporation of any of the molar solution. This is because if the sugar solution evaporates past the level of the of the potato then the potato sample will have less surface area in the solution so osmosis will be slower. To stop...
