You set up an experiment where you place a sealed (clamped) dialysis tube cell in a beaker of water. The solution in the dialysis tube cell is 25%NaCl solution and the solution in the beaker is 1%NaCl solution. The solvent for both is water. Before you place the tube in the cell, after it has been filled and clamped, you find the mass of the ‘cell’ after carefully drying off any water on the outside or on the clamps. You also find the mass of the cell after it has been placed in the beaker solution for 30 minutes after carefully drying off the outside of the ‘cell’ and clamps. The masses are in the table below. Mass in grams of dialysis tube cell Initial Mass 25.0g Final Mass after 30 minutes 28.7g Using this information, explain the difference in mass before and after submerging the cell in the beaker solution for 30 minutes.

You have dialysis tubing that is permeable to water but not sucrose that contain 10 mL of varying concentrations of sucrose solutions that are placed in a beaker with 100 mL of water. In which beaker/bag combination will osmosis happen the fastest? 10% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing 20% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing 30% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing 40% sucrose solution in the dialysis tubing
If you had a dialysis tube that contained 1.3M sucrose solution and youput it into a beaker containing 0.4M sucrose solution. Which direction Would the water move??
A. a pre-weighted dialysis bag which contained a solution of 10% glucose was placed in a beaker which contained 20% glucose. After one hour, the bag was weighted again. Calculate the % mass change of the dialysis bag from the following information: Mass of bag before the experiment: 15.3g Mass of bag after the experiment: 12.7% B. was the beaker solution hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic?
In this experiment 4 dialysis tubes filled with unknown starch concentrations were placed into beakers with 10% starch solutions. The bags were weighed every 10 minutes for an hour to measure osmosis. Use the figure to answer the following questions. Which bag(s) was(were) in a hypertonic environment? Select any that apply. Question options: Bag 1 Bag 2 Bag 3 Bag 4
A dialysis tube that contains 10 mL of a 5% sucrose solution and that is permeable to water but not sucrose is placed in 100 mL of a 5% sucrose solution. What is the tonicity of the solution in the beaker? hypertonic hypotonic isotonic cannot be determined
On your bench, there are two tubes, Tube X and Tube Y. One tube contains 1.2 mL of 300 mosm Sucrose, and the other tube contains 1.2 mL of 300 mosm Urea. After adding 20 ul of blood to each tube, you observed the hemolysis in Tube X, but not in Tube Y. Which of the following two tubes contains Sucrose or Urea? Tube X = Tube Y = If the 2 solutions have the same osmolarity, explain how can they lead to different cell responses?

Describe what happens when a dialysis bag containing pure water is suspended in a beaker of seawater. What would happen if the dialysis membrane were permeable to water but not solutes?
If you had a dialysis tube that contained 1.0M sucrose solution and youput it into a beaker containing 0.2M sucrose solution. Which directionwould the water move?
If a dialysis tube that is permeable to water but not sucrose contains a 40% sucrose solution that is in a beaker of water, the solution in the beaker is said to be: cannot be determined isotonic hypertonic hypotonic
If the dialysis tubing and the beaker solution are both 25% sucrose/iodine it would be isotonic right?
