Question

A solution of 3 percent glucose and a solution of 8 percent glucose are kept in a trough separated by a semi-permeable membrane. What will you observe after 1 hour?

Answer 1

The solution with 8 percent glucose gets diluted. This happens because through a semi permeable membrane the thin inner cell membrane allows water molecules pass through it but prevents other larger molecules. In simple words in a semi permeable membrane, particles from lower concentration move to the higher concentration
