Question
<p>I just cannot remember how this works, I would really appreciate the answer and an explanation!</p><p>The solutions in the two arms of a U-tube are separated by a membrane that is permeable to water and glucose but not to sucrose. Side A is half filled with a solution of 2 M sucrose and 1 M glucose. Side B is half filled with 1 M sucrose and 2 M glucose. Initially, the liquid levels on both sides are equal.<br /><br /> After the system reaches equilibrium, what changes are observed?</p>
<p>a.The molarity of sucrose and glucose are equal on both sides.</p>
<p>b.The molarity of glucose is higher in side A than in side B.</p>
<p>c.The water level is higher in side A than in side B.</p>
<p>d.The water level is unchanged.</p>
<p>e.The water level is higher in side B than in side A.</p>
Explanation / Answer
c.The water level is higher in side A than in side B.
