Solve question number 8 in chemistry
Solution:
a) Solution 1 is hypotonic with respect to potato.
Solution 2 is hypertonic with respect to potato.
Solution 3 is isotonic with respect to potato.
b) In beaker 3, the solution is isotonic with respect to potato as a result there is no net movement of solvent in or out of potato. As a result the size of potato remains unchanged.
