Question

A student dissolved 1g of sugar in 10ml of distilled water in a beaker A. He dissolved 10g of sugar in 100ml of distilled water in beaker B. He dissolved 10g of sugar in 100ml of distilled water in beaker B. Then he dropped a few raisins, in each. After two hours what would he find?

Solution

The concentration of both the solutions is the same in both the beakers so the rate of absorption would also be roughly equal. So after two hours roughly equal amount of water would be absorbed if the raisins in beaker A have already not absorbed 10 ml of water.

Q. A Student dissolved 5 g of sugar in 100 mL of distilled water in beaker A. He dissolved 100 g of sugar in 100 mL of distilled water in beaker B. Then he dropped a few raisins of equal weight in each beaker. After two hours he found the raisins in A swollen and those in B shrunken. The inference drown is that:
(1) sugar concentration of raisins is lower than that of solution A and higher than that solution B.
(2) sugar concentration of raisins is higher that that of solution A and lower that that of solution B.
(3) in B the cell membrane of raisins was damaged resulting in bleaching.
(4) in A the permeability of water of the cell membrane of raisins was enhanced

Q. A student put five raisins each in two beakers A and B. Beaker A contained 50 ml of distilled water and beaker B had 50 ml of saturated sugar solution. After sometime, the student would observe that

Q. Each of the three beakers A, B and C contained 50 mL of distilled water. A student placed five raisins in each beaker. The raisins for each beaker weighed the same. The beakers were kept at room temperature. The raisins were removed from beaker A after 10 minutes, from beaker B after 20 minutes and from beaker C after one hour. On calculating the percentage of water absorbed by the raisins, it was found that:
(1) maximum absorption of water by raisins was in beaker C
(2) maximum absorption of water by raisins was in beaker B
(3) minimum absorption of water by raisins was in beaker C
(4) absorption of water was equal in raisins of all the three beakers
