Question

** For question 53 (sub parts a-c) consider a 4% starch solution and a 10% starch solution separated by a semipermeable membrane**

Part A

Which starch solution will decrease in volume as osmosis occurs?

A. 4% B. 10% C. Neither exerts osmotic pressure D. They exert equal osmotic pressures E. They exert opposite osmotic pressures

Part B

The process that occurs in this system is

A. filtration B. hydration C. neutralization D. dialysis E. osmosis

Part C

Which of the following also occurs in this system?

A. water flows equally in both directions B. There is a net flow of water from 4% starch solution into the 10% starch solution C. there is a net flow of water from the 10% starch solution in to the 4% starch solution D. water does not cross the membrane at all E. starch moves out of the 10% starch solution into the 4% starch solution

Explanation / Answer

Part-A

A.4%

Because water will shift from the solution more dilute to the other solution.

4% starch solution decrease in volume of osmolysis.

Part-B

E. osmosis

osmosis proces is takec place in the system.

Part-C

B. There is a net flow of water from 4% starch solution into the 10% starch solution.

osmolysis water move from high concentration solution to low concentration solution.
