A Tube with a Membrane Covering the Bottom Is Placed

Multiple Choice

A tube with a membrane covering the bottom is placed in a beaker. The membrane allows water to flow through but not salt or glucose. If the tube contains an aqueous solution with4% salt and 20% glucose and the beaker contains an aqueous solution with 12% salt and 6% glucose, what would happen to the level of the water in the tube?

A) The level of the solution in the tube would rise because there are more dissolved solutes present in the beaker than in the tube.
B) The level of the solution in the tube would lower because the glucose and salt would move into the tube.
C) The level of the solution in the tube would rise because there are more dissolved solutes in the tube than the beaker.
D) The level of the solution would not change as the membrane prohibits any exchange between the tube and the beaker.
E) The level of solution in the tube would not change because the solute levels are equal on both sides.
