Title: If a sugar cube was put in water would diffusion or osmosis occur? Post by: fioravme09 on Nov 13, 2012 I thought it would be diffusion, because wouldn't the higher concentration be in the sugar cube, diffusion going from high concentration to low. but this smart girl in my class said the water does osmosis into the sugar cube? but this other equally smart girl said i was right.
I'm really confused can someone help me? and also generally how can you tell which has the higher concentration? Title: If a sugar cube was put in water would diffusion or osmosis occur? Post by: microlipse on Nov 13, 2012 I think that diffusion would occur, due to the higher concentration in the sugar cube.

Title: If a sugar cube was put in water would diffusion or osmosis occur? Post by: microman on Nov 13, 2012 The sugar diffuses from regions of high concentration ( the sugar cube) into regions of low concentration ( the water ).
The water moves by osmosis from regions of high concentration ( the water ) to regions of low concentration ( the sugar cube. ) Its all just names. |
