This was due to osmosis which is is the movement of molecules from a high concentration to a lower concentration

Beaker one became more concentrated since it had a lower concentration causing it to gain mass

Beaker two and 3 became less concentration sink the salt solution moved out of the potato causing it to have a lower concentration and loose mass due to the loss of solution in the potato
