A semipermeable membrane separates a solution which is 0.012 M in glucose from one that is 0.250 M in glucose. On which of these solutions must pressure be applied to prevent a net flow of water through the membrane?

Options

A.On the 0.012 M
B.On the 0.250 M
C.Equal pressure on both the solutions.
D.The pressure on 0.012 M solution should be double the pressure on 0.250 M
