A 10% glucose solution is placed in the thistle tube. The thistle tube is placed in a beaker that contains a 5% glucose solution. There is a differentially permeable membrane across the broad end of the tube, which is permeable to water but not to the sugar glucose. As diffusion occurs,

Sagot :

The 10% glucose solution will become less concentrated whereas the 5% solution will become more concentrated.

How, explain your answer briefly?

There are two glucose solutions having different amount of glucose in it which is separated from each other by a differentially permeable membrane. Through this membrane, glucose can not pass through it but water can diffuse through it due to its smaller size. Therefore, the water will diffuse from the 5% glucose solution toward the 10% glucose solution.

So less water is present at 5% solution after diffusion which make it more concentrated while on the other hand, 10% solution will become less concentrated as water will enter into it so we can conclude that 10% glucose solution will become less concentrated whereas the 5% solution will become more concentrated.

Thus, this could be the answer.
