How would you go about finding the water potential of the potato cells in terms of the sucrose solution? Do I have to convert it to mol?
Concentration of the potato can be found via the graph when the ratio of original length: final length = 1:1. A ratio of 1:1 means no change in length of potato due to osmosis.
From your graph is around 5-10% sucrose concentration. If I’m not wrong the water potential is how much % water is in the potato which means if there is 5-10% sucrose, you assume the remaining 90-95% to be water— or “water potential”.
Also, you may want to reconsider the axis intervals it’s a bit weird and I think each small box should be even interval not odd interval.
The intervals are the best I can figure unless I had a taller graph paper
