Distilled water has a lower concentration of solutes compared to a solution, causing it to be hypotonic. When placed across a semipermeable membrane from a solution with a higher solute concentration, water will move through osmosis from the distilled water side to the solution side. This will result in an increase in the volume of the solution as water moves into it.
Yes, osmosis will occur when dried apple slices are placed in distilled water and corn syrup. The dried apple slices will absorb water in the distilled water through osmosis as water moves from an area of high concentration to low concentration. In the corn syrup, the opposite will happen as water will move out of the apple slices into the higher concentration solution.
In the concentrated sugar solution, water will move out of the potato cube, causing it to shrink due to osmosis. In distilled water, water will move into the potato cube, causing it to swell due to osmosis.
The cell would undergo the process of osmosis, where water molecules move from the area of higher concentration (the distilled water solution) to the area of lower concentration (inside the cell). This would cause the cell to expand and potentially burst due to the influx of water.
Yes, you can use reverse osmosis water in a CPAP machine, but be cautious of its mineral content. Reverse osmosis water may lack essential minerals and could potentially encourage bacterial growth in the humidifier chamber. It's generally recommended to use distilled water to prevent these issues.
Solute potential and water potential both influence the rate of osmosis. A lower solute potential increases water potential, prompting water to move into an area with higher solute concentration. This increases the rate of osmosis. Conversely, a higher solute potential decreases water potential, causing water to move out of a region with lower solute concentration, slowing down the rate of osmosis.
if seeds are grown in distilled water then it increases rate of osmosis.
Carrots placed in distilled water will become limp or wilted as they lose water due to osmosis. The concentration of solutes inside the carrot cells is higher than that of the distilled water, causing water to move out of the cells, leading to the wilting effect.
Tap water. Distilled water contains no salts and therefore no nutrition for the plant. In reality distilled water would not be able to be absorbed by osmosis into the root system of the plant - as osmosis relies on the differences in concentration of minerals dissolved in the water to work.
The movement of water into plant cells when they are immersed in distilled water is called osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration.
It can be filtered, distilled, or purified by reverse osmosis.

Distilled (or double-distilled water; DDH2O) removes all but pure water molecules from a portion of water for use in the laboratory. While other treatments may have similar effects as distilling, they can leave more traces of impurities in the water or only act on a certain portion of the treatment of water (like removing ions, with deionization. reverse-osmosis, can be combined with other treatments to give nearly the same thing as distillation yields. Such purification methods might be deionization, ozonation, filtration and irradiation.
In the concentrated sugar solution, water will move out of the potato cube, causing it to shrink due to osmosis. In distilled water, water will move into the potato cube, causing it to swell due to osmosis.
Yes, because the distilled water has higher water potential as compared the the strip potato, so water will enter the potato by osmosis, through a partially permeable membrane, causing it to increase in size (:
If animal cells are placed in distilled water they will absorb water by the process called osmosis. This will make the cell swell and, if it doen not stop, eventually burst. Plant cells placed in distilled water will also absorb water by osmosis but the cell wall prevents them from swelling. Water enters the cells by osmosis because the concentration of the solution inside the cells is higher than that of the 'solution' outside. Water always moves by osmosis from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution (when they are separated by a membrane which lets water through but not dissolved substances).

Yes, the raisins will swell due to osmosis, where the solvent goes from a low solute concentration to a higher solute concentration, which in this case, is from the distilled water to inside the raisin.
Distilled water would have a higher concentration of water molecules compared to red blood cells. Red blood cells have solutes dissolved in them, so they have a lower concentration of water molecules relative to distilled water. This concentration gradient would result in osmosis moving water into the red blood cells to equalize the concentrations.
