A U-shaped tube is filled with water and then split into two sections by a membrane at the lowest part of the tube. The membrane is permeable to water, but is impermeable to ions. 50g of salt are added to the left side of the tube and allowed to enter solution.
Which of the following would not result following the addition of salt?
Possible Answers:
The osmotic pressure of the left side will be greater than the right side.
The water will be higher on the side that has salt.
The concentrations of both sides will become equal as water flows through the membrane.
The forces of entropy and pressure will be equal when the solution is at equilibrium?
