What happened to the dialysis bag containing 10% sugar solution as it was placed in a beaker containing 0% sugar solution and in another beaker containing 15% sugar solution? What type of solutions were the 0% and 15% solutions compared to the dialysis bag that contained 10% sugar solution?

Answer 1

Answer:

The beaker is hypotonic and the bag is hypertonic. A hypotonic solution is a dilute solution and has fewer solute particles; a hypertonic solution is concentrated and has more solute particles when compared to the hypotonic solution.

During osmosis, water travels across a semi-permeable membrane from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution. In this case, water will travel...
