Question

the u - shaped tube model shows the effects of osmosis over time. u - shaped tube immediately after a different solution is added to each side. u - shaped tube after time has passed. decide whether each event happened on the left side or the right side of the u - shaped tube over time. complete the table. left side right side solution volume increased solvent concentration increased solute concentration increased

Explanation:

Step1: Understand osmosis principle

Osmosis is the movement of solvent from an area of lower solute - concentration to an area of higher solute - concentration.

Step2: Analyze volume change

The side with higher solute concentration will have solvent move into it, increasing its volume. In the U - shaped tube, the right - hand side has a higher solute concentration initially. So, solvent will move into the right - hand side, increasing its solution volume.

Step3: Analyze solvent concentration change

As solvent moves out of the left - hand side and into the right - hand side, the solvent concentration increases on the left - hand side.

Step4: Analyze solute concentration change

Since solvent moves into the right - hand side, the solute concentration on the right - hand side decreases. And as solvent moves out of the left - hand side, the solute concentration on the left - hand side increases.

Answer:

	Left side	Right side
Solvent concentration increased	$\bigcirc$
Solute concentration increased	$\bigcirc$
