To determine how much water a potato loses in three days, you would need to consider factors like its initial weight, environmental conditions (like humidity and temperature), and whether it was stored in a sealed container or exposed to air. On average, a potato can lose around 1-2% of its weight in water per day under normal conditions. Therefore, over three days, it might lose approximately 3-6% of its initial weight in water. For a specific measurement, you would need to weigh the potato before and after the three days.
What else can I help you with?
Will a potato lose weight if it is peeled and soaked in a salt water solution for a day?
Because of osmosis the water in the potato will move into the hypertonic solution causing the potato to lose weight.
Do you begin to lose weight after three days of starvation?
Yes but it is water not fat.
To lose 8 pounds in two-three days for a football weigh in?
drink water all day
If you put sugar in a peeled potato what will happen?
Osmosis will happen. The water will move from the potato into the sugar solution. The potato will lose mass and shrink.
When a peeled potato is placed in distilled water it will .......as a result of osmosis. if some salt is added to the potato will?
When a peeled potato is placed in distilled water, it will swell as a result of osmosis, as water moves into the potato cells where the solute concentration is higher. If some salt is added to the potato, it will cause the potato to lose water, leading to shrinkage, as the salt creates a higher solute concentration outside the potato cells, drawing water out.
Do potato cubes gain or lose mass in salt water solutions?
depends on the salt content of the potato and how concentrated the salt is. the more salt there is in the water than the potato- the more water will exit the potato which then loses mass.
What three ways do animals lose water?
Animals lose water when they urinate, perspire, and exhale.
Potato strip soaked in the 10 percent NaCl bendable?
When a potato strip is soaked in a 10 percent NaCl solution, it undergoes osmosis, where water moves out of the potato cells due to the higher concentration of salt outside the cells. This causes the cells to lose water, leading to shrinkage and the potato strip becoming bendable.
Can you lose two teeth in three days?
Yes u can
If you dont eat for 3 days how many pounds will you lose?
If you are trying to lose weight, not eating for three days will not be much help. You may not lose any weight at all if you don't eat for three days. Your body will think that there is a food shortage and will start to store fat.
What do you think will happen to the potato pieces if increase the amount of salt in each test container?
Increasing the amount of salt in each test container will result in a higher concentration of salt in the surrounding solution. This will cause water to move out of the potato pieces via osmosis, leading to a decrease in their size and weight as they lose water and shrink.
How long do you have to ride a bike to lose one pound?
Three days
