In what direction will osmosis occur if a 35% sugar solution is separated from a 15% sugar solution by a selectively permeable membrane?

Respuesta :

Oseni

Osmosis will occur in the 35% sugar solution's direction.

What is osmosis?

It is the movement of water molecules from the region of high water potential to the region of low water potential through a selectively permeable membrae.

Solutions with high solute concentrations have low water potentials while those with low solutes have high water potentials.

Thus, water molecules will move from a 15% sugar solution to a 35% sugar solution if both are separated by a permeable membrane.
