What direction would water move if a cell conatins 8 percent solute and the solution contains 20 percent solute?
Water will move out of the cell and into the solution.
The explanation for this is that water generally moves from an area of higher WATER concentration (the cell) into an area of lower WATER concentration (the solution).
This answer assumes that the cell in the question has a semi-permeable membrane and would allow water to pass through. Also, an effect of the water moving out of the cell is that the cell will shrink or decrease in size.
What else can I help you with?
A balloon permeable to water but not to glucose contains a 10 percent glucose solution A beaker contains a 5 percent glucose solution the solution in the balloon is what?
The balloon will contain a mixture of the 10% and 5% glucose solutions. Since water can pass through but not glucose, the glucose concentration inside the balloon will decrease over time as water moves from the lower concentration in the beaker to the higher concentration in the balloon through osmosis.
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.
A bag with a 2 percent solution is placed in a beaker that has a 10 percent solution is the solution in the bag hypotonic hypertonic or isotonic?
The solution in the bag is hypotonic compared to the solution in the beaker. This is because the bag has a lower concentration of solute (2%) compared to the beaker (10%), so water will tend to move into the bag to equalize the concentrations, causing the bag to swell.
A cell that is 35 percent water is placed in a solution that is 35 percent water Which way will the net movement of water go?
If the cell and the solution contain the same percentage of water, the solution is isotonic. This means that the net movement of water will not be in either direction, there will be no net movement.
What ecosystem contains 32 percent of the world producers?
The ocean ecosystem contains 32 percent of the world's primary producers, mainly phytoplankton. Phytoplankton play a crucial role in the ocean food chain by converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis.
What is the concentration as percent of a solution which contains 160 g of solute in 2.75L of solution?
The answer is 5,82 %.
If a 10 percent sugar solution is separated from 20 percent sugar solution by a selectively permeable membrane in which direction will there be net movement?
The direction will be towards the more concentrated side so the 10% solution with go towards the 20% solution in an attempt to reach equilibrium.
What has a percent by volume of 0.038?
A solution with a percent by volume of 0.038 contains 0.038 liters of solute dissolved in 100 liters of solution. This means that 0.038% of the total volume is the solute.
1 percent solution of a medication equals how many micrograms?
A 1 percent solution of a medication means it contains 1 gram of the medication in 100 mL of solution. To convert grams to micrograms, you multiply by 1,000,000. Therefore, a 1 percent solution would contain 1,000,000 micrograms of the medication.
How much glucose is in one liter of 5 percent dextrose in water?
A 5 percent dextrose solution contains 5 grams of dextrose (glucose) per 100 milliliters of solution. Therefore, in one liter (1000 milliliters) of a 5 percent dextrose solution, there would be 50 grams of glucose.
A pharmacist mixed a 20 percent solution with a 30 percent solution to obtain 100 liters of a 24 percent solution How much of the 20 percent solution did the pharmacist use in the mixture?
A pharmacist mixed a 20 percent solution with a 30 percent solution to obtain 100 liters of a 24 percent solution. How much of the 20 percent solution did the pharmacist use in the mixture (in liters).
A solution is 10 percent ethanol if you have 6L of solution how much ethanol is is the solution?
10% of 6L is 600 ml. 6000 / 100 * 10 = 600 ml.
A balloon permeable to water but not to glucose contains a 10 percent glucose solution A beaker contains a 5 percent glucose solution the solution in the balloon is what?
The balloon will contain a mixture of the 10% and 5% glucose solutions. Since water can pass through but not glucose, the glucose concentration inside the balloon will decrease over time as water moves from the lower concentration in the beaker to the higher concentration in the balloon through osmosis.
What is the percent by volume of ethanol in a solution that contains 48 mL of ethanol dissolved in 144 mL of water?
The total volume of the solution is 48 mL + 144 mL = 192 mL. The percent by volume of ethanol is calculated as (volume of ethanol / total volume of solution) * 100%. Plugging in the values, we get (48 mL / 192 mL) * 100% = 25%. So, the solution contains 25% ethanol by volume.
How much 50 percent antifreeze solution and 40 percent antifreeze solution should be combined to give 50 gallons of 46 percent antifreeze solution?
How much 50 percent antifreeze solution and 40 percent antifreeze solution should be combined to give 50 gallons of 46 percent antifreeze solution?

In which direction would osmosis occur if 15 percent sugar solution is separated from a 25 percent sugar solution?
It would flow toward the weaker solution. The intent of osmosis is to gain equilibrium, so the 15 percent solution would gain sugar content until, if you allowed the osmosis to go to completion, the two solutions had the same amount of sugar in them. "Going to completion" doesn't necessarily mean 20 percent concentration on both sides. If you were to make a gallon bag out of dialysis membrane, fill it with 15 percent solution and put a stirrer in it, then drop it into a 25,000-gallon reaction vessel full of 25 percent solution with a stirrer in it, you might wind up with 24.9999999999 percent sugar solution in both bags.
