Question

If we place a dialysis tube filled with water that is a 10% salt solution into a beaker that has a 5% salt solution water will...
A. have net movement OUT of the tube, this is a hypertonic solution compared to inside the tube
B. have net movement into the tube, this is a hypotonic solution compared to inside the tube
C. have net movement OUT of the tube, this is a hypotonic solution compared to inside the tube
D. have no net movement, this is an isotonic solution compared to inside the tube.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is D.

have no net movement, this is an isotonic solution compared to inside the tube.

Explanation:

It will have no net movement, this is an isotonic solution compared to inside the tube because isotonic solution is a solution that has the same osmolarity or solute concentration in both solution, which allow free water movement across the semi permeable memberane on both solution i.e the concentration of the two solution are mostly the same.
