Question

a 10 percent solution of copper sulfate is separated by a partially permeable membrane from a 5 percent solution of copper sulfate .will water diffuse from the 10 percent solution of copper sulfate to the 5 percent solution or from the five percent to the 10 percent .explain your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

Water will go from 5% to 10%

Explanation:

The percentage expressed here is that of Copper sulfate so if we subtract the value from 100, we will get the concentration of water in the solutions.

that is , in the 5%(Cu) solution, water is 95%

in the 10%(Cu) solution, water is 90%

hence water will flow from 5% solution to 10% solutio
