Question
multiple choice question. solutions a and b are separated by a semipermeable membrane. solution a has more solutes than solution b. in which direction will osmosis occur? o from a to b o both from a to b and from b to a with no net movement of water. o from b to a
Osmosis is the movement of water from an area of lower solute concentration (higher water concentration) to an area of higher solute concentration (lower water concentration) across a semi - permeable membrane. Solution B has fewer solutes (higher water concentration) compared to solution A. So water will move from B to A.
