What change will occur if a piece of peeled potato is dropped in a concentrated sugar solution?
The potato may show some shrinking, but the more observable change is loss in mass of the peeled potato.
Water will move out of the potato by osmosis. In osmosis, the water moves from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration.
There is lower water concentration outside of the potato because of the high amount of sugar dissolved in it.
Depending on the concentration differences between the potato and the solution, water loss will continue until an equilibrium is reached.
The potato piece will become flaccid (floppy)/plasmolysed, because of the water loss it has suffered.
Shrinkage results from loss of turgor pressure in the potato, as a result of it becoming plasmolysed.
