Question

similar concentrations of solute As shown above, two solutions with similar solute concentration are separated by a membrane that allows only water to pass, and one solution is of greater volume than the other Which choice best describes the firsf step towards achieving equlibrium from this point? O a The water willfow to the left side, down its pressure gradient unti the two sides achleve equal height Ob Water vill pass to the right side and increase its volume O C Any water that passes to the left side will create a tension on the right side, pulling the water back to the right side od The energy in the pressure gradlent will dive water to the leftside,which wll cause the solute concentration on the rightside to increase Chek Save and Submit to save and submit.Clhek Save All Ansuers to save all ansvers

Explanation / Answer

Since concentration of solute is same on both sides and concentration of water is more on right side than left. Hence water will enter osmotically to left sidefrom right until an equilibrium is attained across the membrane. Option A is correct.
