Suppose that you have a solution of 8% sugar water in a bag. The bag is semi-permeable: water molecules can pass into and out of

it, but sugar molecules cannot. Predict what will happen to the mass of the bag if you put into each of the following:
A breaker of pure water:
A breaker of 8% sugar water:
A breaker of 15% sugar water:

Can you please describe each scenarios

Since the sugar particles cannot pass through, the bag acts like a filter. 

a beaker of pure water will go through the bag, as the bag is semi-permeable and lets water in and out.


a beaker with 8% sugar concentrate in water, the water will go through, but that will leave you with the 8% of sugar. Some mass will be left in the bag


a beaker with 15% sugar dissolved in it, will act the same as the 8% solution, but it will leave behind  a greater mass.

Help me with this ASAP!!<br><br> Does biomass contribute to global climate change?
Vesna [10]

Biomass may contribute to global climate change because certain trophic levels produce greenhouse gases.

<h3>What are greenhouse gases?</h3>

Greenhouse gases are specific types of gases that can maintain heat (solar radiation) on Earth's surface and thus increase Earth's temperature.

The ruminant animals produce methane, which is an important greenhouse gas associated with the global climate.

In consequence, the sudden increase in animal husbandry due to human activities may also increase the effects of climate change.

What would explain the change in the size of a gummy bear after it is placed in regular water?
salantis [7]

Answer:

The change in size of a gummy bear when placed in water is due to the presence of gelatin in the gummy bears.

Explanation:

Most of the gummy candies, like the gummy bears are made up of gelatin. To make the gummy bears, water and gelatin are mixed and heated. Then, this mixture is allowed to cool. During cooling, the water evaporates leaving the gelatin in a chewy form.

When the gummy bear is placed in water, the water is absorbed by the gummy bear due to  osmosis. Hence, the gummy bears tend to increase in size.

Water is a hygroscopic substance i.e it tends to absorb water. So, this property of gelatin will enable it to absorb water and increase in size.
