At the start of the experiment, which side of the U tube is hypotonic, and which is hypertonic?
Explain
90% Water 90% Water
10% Starch 10% Starch
3. 1 2 Study the diagrams of the beakers (1 & 2) to the right, noting the concentrations of various substances in the beakers and in the dialysis bags. Water molecules can pass through the dialysis bag, but starch cannot pass through.
a. In which direction will water move in setup #1?
Why?
100% Water 80% Water
20% Starch
b. Which of the beakers contains a solution that is hypertonic relative to the bag's contents?
c. In which direction will water move in setup #2?
