If there is a 10 glucose solution on one side of a semipermeable membrane and 5 salt solution on the other side what will most likely happen to the flow of water?

Water will diffuse from solution B to solution A

∙ 12y agothe water would sit below the solution because the glucose is more dense then water.

How does osmosis happen?
Diffusion of fluid through a semipermeable membrane from a solution with a low solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration until there is an equal concentration of fluid on both sides of the membrane
What test would you need to perform to prove that it is the combination of glucose and the glucose indicator solution that changes color when heated and not just the glucose or the glucose indicator?
That's actually not that difficult. If one wishes to answer this question in depth, feel free, but all one must do is test them separately. Just put glucose and your indicator (most-likley benedict's solution) in separate beakers, and then heat them both. Nothing will happen to either of them.
What will happen when yeast is added to a solution of glucose?
The yeast will begin to multiply as it feeds off the glucose. As the yeast increases, alcohol and carbon dioxide is given off. It is this alcohol that wine and beer producers hope to gain.
What will happen when rbc kept in 10 percent glucose solution?
As he concentration of sugar is higher at the outer atmosphere of rbc it will gain sugar inside and loss water
What will happen when yeast is added to a solution of lactose?
Since yeast will only have a reaction when it is able to break down an enzyme nothing will happen when it is added to lactose. Lactose does not contain the proper enzymes or glucose to cause a reaction.

A model cell half full of an aqueous solution of glucose with a membrane that is permeable to glucose is placed into a beaker of distilled water Explain what is likely to happen?
do you go to UTAS? that is not an answer how is this going to help people ????
5 percent glucose solution is isotonic for red blood cell if red blood cell are kept in 2 percent glucose solution what will happen to the cells. what such a solution called?
2% glucose solution is considered as a hypotonic solution for that the solution will enter the semi-permeable membrane of the red blood cells causing the cells to explode or burst. Why? It's because RBCs have a higher concentration inside it than that of the 2% glucose solution so the solution will enter the cells.
If the nucleus is surrounded by a semipermeable membrane what would happen if this layer were permeable to most substances?
Large molecules would be able to enter and damage the nucleus.
What is a diffused molecule from a semipermeable membrane?
What is the situation? Provided a concentration gradient and a molecule that passes through a membrane, diffusion will happen. Generally small and nonpolar molecules will pass through a membrane down a concentration gradient. That doesn't answer your question but it may be the answer your looking for.
What is the ability of a cell membrane to allow materials to pass through it ca surrounded by a semipermeable membrane What would happen if this layer were permeable to most substances?

What will happen when red blood cells are kept in 10 percent glucose solution?
nothing
The nucleus is surrounded by a semipermeable membrane. what would happen if this layer were permeable to most substances?

How can i make a 10 percent glucose solution from 50 percent glucose solution?
Let's say the total solution is 100 liters. 50 of the liters is glucose and 50 is water. We want to make the 50 glucose equal to 10% of the total solution. For that to happen, we need to make the total solution 500 liters (50 of the 500 would be a 10% solution). So we add 400 liters of water to the original 100 liter (50/50) solution. Take the total number of units and multiply by 4. Add that much in water.
What If a system of linear equations has no solution?
It can happen. Then there is no solution!It can happen. Then there is no solution!It can happen. Then there is no solution!It can happen. Then there is no solution!
If a chemist wants to study dissfusion should a semipermeable membrane be used?
Diffusion is essentially the movement of solute molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. A semi permeable membrane need not be used to study this phenomenon
When two solvents are separated by a semipermeable membrane water flows from low solute concentrations to high solute concentrations. What would happen if external pressure is applied to the solution?
"Water ALWAYS follows the salt" or to put it another way, it will try to make the two sides have equal amounts of water. The water will go where there are more solute particles. Water easily passes from one side to the other by simple osmosis.
