What would happen if solution Y is more concentrated than solution X in fig 2
The level of X would rise, Y would falls
The level of X would rise, Y would rise
The level of X and Y stands the same
The level of Y would rise, X would fall.
Explanation
Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides Therefore, the level of Y (region of higher concentration) would rise, X (region of lower concentration) would fall to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides
This explain osmosis
