Solute Concentration on the Mass of Apples Introduction Background: This lab involves the testing and measuring of water potential. Water potential (ψ) is the tendency of water to diffuse from one region to another. It measures the free energy available in water to do work. Pure water has a water potential of 0 (kpa--unit?). Water will move from an area of higher water potential to an area of lower water potential. Several factors‚ including temperature‚ pressure (ψp) and solute concentration (ψs)
