Question

What will happen if dry raisins are kept in pure water for some time and later transferred to concentrated sugar solution

Answer 1

when dry raisins are kept in pure water for some time and later transferred to concentrated sugar solution then they will swallow and absorb sugar

Answer 2

1. raisin swells in pure water

2. raisin shrinks in concentrated solution

Explanation:

• The water moves through a semi-permeable membrane from high concentration to low concentration.
• The process by which the water moves is known as osmosis.
• The amount of water in raisin is very less due to the high amount of solute in the form of sugar.
• This raisin when kept in water swells as the water moves from high concentration (pure water) to raisin.
• This raisin when later transferred to the highly concentrated sugar solution (hypertonic), the water moves out through the raisin as sugar solution has less amount of water and the raisin swells.
