According to the rules of osmosis, a system will reach a state of equilibrium when there are equal numbers of _____ molecules on both sides of a water-permeable membrane. solute solvent water none of the above A SimCell with a water-permeable membrane that contains 20 hemoglobin molecules and 480 water molecules is placed into an extracellular fluid that contains 20 dextrose molecules and 480 water molecules. Which of the following should happen? More water molecules will flow from the SimCell into the extracellular fluid than from the extracellular fluid into the SimCell. More water molecules will flow from the extracellular fluid into the SimCell than from the SimCell into the extracellular fluid. There will be no movement of water molecules across the membrane. Water molecules will move back and forth equally across the membrane.

Solution

Q5 ANSWER IS solvent

Q6 Since the water molecules are equal in both the simcell and extracellular fluid ... the pressure due to dextrose and haemoglobin will also be same in both simcell and extracellular fluid as it is a colligative property ... so there would be no net moment of water but since equilibrum is never static but dynamic so answer would be

WATER MOLECULES WOULD MOVE BACK AND FORTH EQUALLY ACROSS THE MEMBRANE ...such that there is no net moment of water,though water molecules continue to move in dynamic equilibrum.....

Hope it helps

SHOULD U NEED FURTHER CLARIFICATION

i also give video classes on chegg if u need more help u can always comment and we can schedule a whiteboard class on chegg.. Happy chegging .....
