Answer: The water will pass from 10% glucose to 75% glucose.

Explanation:

concentration wise, the solution from higher concentration will move towards the lower concentration.75% glucose has 75 of glucose and 25 of water similarly 10% glucose has 10 of glucose but 90 of water and as a result the glucose cannot pass but the water will pass from 90 towards 25.the movement may continue till the concentration of water on either sides becomes equal.
