osmosis

Question 1

a specific form of diffusion defined as the movement of water down its concentration gradient across a selectively permeable membrane.

Answer 1

osmosis

Question 2

the random movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration from an area of lower concentration

Answer 2

diffusion

Question 3

why does a higher molarity of sucrose (e.g. 1.0 M) have a greater percent change in mass compared to a lower molarity of sucrose (e. g. 02. M)?

Answer 3

Water moves from higher to lower concentrations of water. As the sucrose (which was the solute) increased, the amount of water in it (the solvent) decreased, so more water could move into the sucrose.

Question 4

To find the concentration of a solution…

Answer 4

divide the amount of solute by the amount of solvent

Question 5

What is a solute?

Answer 5

the substance getting dissolved in a solution

Question 6

what is a solvent?

Answer 6

the liquid that is doing the dissolving

Question 7

common solutes:

Answer 7

salt and sucrose

Question 8

Answer 8

water

Question 9

more solute molecules compared to a separate solution

Answer 9

hypertonic

Question 10

less solute molecules compared to a separate solution:

Answer 10

hypotonic

Question 11

those 2 solutions have the exact same solute concentration

Answer 11

isotonic

Question 12

Water always moves from _____tonic to ____tonic

Answer 12

hypo to hyper

Question 13

The difference in concentration between the two solutions

Answer 13

concentration gradient

Question 14

large difference between concentrations

Answer 14

large gradient

Question 15

small difference between concentrations

Answer 15

small gradient
