1 A selectively permeable membrane separates the solutions in the arms of a U-tube. The membrane is permeable to water and substance B, but not substance A. 60 g of substance A and 40 g of substance B was added to side 1 of the tube. 40 g of substance A and 60 g of substance B was added to side 2 of the tube. What would happen to the amount of substance A, substance B, and water on each side of the tube as it reaches equilibrium?

3 Flask X contains a solution that is 0.5% NaCl.
The cell membrane of red blood cells is permeable to water, but not to sodium chloride, NaCl. Suppose you have three (3) flasks: Flask X contains a solution that is 0.5% NaCl. Flask Y contains a solution that is 0.9% NaCl Flask Z contains a solution that is 1.5% NaCl. To each flask, you add red blood cells, which contain a solution that is 0.9% NaCl. 1. Predict what will happen to the red blood cells in flask X. Solution in the flask: Solution in the cell: What would happen to the cell?
