Summary Introduction

To explain: The change in the contents of compartment B when sucrose is added to compartment A.

Introduction: A solution is made up of both “solute and solvent”. The solute is usually a solid and solvent is usually a liquid. When the concentration of solute and solvent is equal in and out of the cell, it is said to be in an equilibrium condition. If the concentration of both solute and solvent is unequal like in hypo or hypertonic solutions, a cell will always equalize the concentration of both solute and solvent inside and outside the cell membrane by osmosis.
