Question

A semipermeable membrane separates two solutions. On one side of the membrane the concentration of sodium ions is 0.87 mol/L, and on the other side the concentration of sodium ions is 2.5 mol/L. Which statement is true? Please conduct an internet search on "osmosis" to help you answer this question.

Sodium ions will flow from the 2.5 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 0.87 mol/L solution.

Sodium ions will flow from the 0.87 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 2.5 mol/L solution.

Water will flow from the 2.5 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 0.87 mol/L solution.

Water will flow from the 0.87 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 2.5 mol/L solution.

Sodium ions will flow from the 2.5 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 0.87 mol/L solution.

Sodium ions will flow from the 0.87 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 2.5 mol/L solution.

Water will flow from the 2.5 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 0.87 mol/L solution.

Water will flow from the 0.87 mol/L solution through the membrane into the 2.5 mol/L solution.

Explanation / Answer

water flows from 2.5 Molar solution to 0.87 Molar solution

as per principle to eatblish equilibrium con both sides it is solvent that moves from higher con to lower conc in semi permeable membrane
