Best Answer

The water in the dialysis bag would diffuse out into the molasses solution. This is because there is a high concentration of water inside the dialysis bag and a a lower concentration of water in the molasses solution. By diffusion or osmosis, the water would tend to move from the concentrated bag to a less concentrated solution.

Water should leave the bag because the molasses solution will be hypertonic to it, so the bag's weight will decrease.

The weight would decrease. The water would diffuse through the bag and into the molasses because the molasses has greater solute concentration.
