If a solute in an aqueous solution is at a higher concentration on one side of a selectively permeable membrane than on the other side, which of the following is expected to occur?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In this scenario, water molecules will move across the selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration (lower solute concentration) to an area of low concentration (higher solute concentration) until equilibrium is reached. This process is known as osmosis.
