Question

In this experiment set up answer the following
a) what phenomenon is being studied by this set up?
b) what is meant by semi permeable membrane
c) what will you observe in the set up after about half an hour? Give reason

Answer 1

Explanation:

a) Osmosis.

b)semi permeable membrane allows only selective particles to cross the membrane.

c)After half an hour the equilibrium will be reached . As A is more concentrated than B , the water molecules will move from B to A (as water molecules move from region of low concentrated solution to the region of high concentrated solution).
