When a carrot slice is placed in tap water for several hours why does it become very stiff?
When a carrot slice is placed in tap water, it absorbs the water through a process called osmosis. The water moves into the carrot cells, causing them to become turgid and swell, making the carrot slice stiff. This happens because the water pressure inside the cells increases, providing structural support to the carrot slice.
Why does it happen when a carrot is soaked in saltwater?
When a carrot is soaked in saltwater, it undergoes osmosis, where water moves out of the carrot cells into the saltwater, which has a higher concentration of solutes. This causes the carrot to lose water, leading to wilting and a decrease in turgor pressure. The result is a firmer texture and a loss of crispness in the carrot. Conversely, if the carrot were soaked in fresh water, it would absorb water and become more turgid.
Why does a carrot float in salt water but sink in fresh water?
A carrot will float in salt water because salt water is denser than the carrot. This creates buoyant force that allows the carrot to float. In fresh water, the carrot is denser than the water, causing it to sink.
Why do carrots in fresh water swell?
Carrots swell in fresh water due to osmosis, a process where water moves across a semi-permeable membrane. In the case of carrots, the concentration of solutes inside the carrot cells is higher than that of the surrounding fresh water. As a result, water enters the cells to balance the solute concentrations, causing the carrots to absorb water and swell.
