Figure 5.2
The solutions in the two arms of this U-tube (Figure 5.2) are separated by a membrane that is permeable to water and glucose but not to sucrose. Side A is half-filled with a solution of 2 M sucrose and 1 M glucose. Side B is half-filled with 1 M sucrose and 2 M glucose. Initially, the liquid levels are equal. Refer to the figure to answer the following question(s).
-Initially, in terms of tonicity in the figure, the solution in side A with respect to that in side B is
