Question: A one hundred ml vessel is filled with water separated in equal parts by a semipermeable membrane. The molecular weight cut off ( MWCO) of the membrane is 100g/mol. In compartment A , 0.5 moles of calcium gluconate ( molecular weight: 430.373g/ mol) is dissolved in the water. ** Assuming full dissociation of calcium gluconate in water and no net movement of water across the memebrane. a. Calculate the molarity, osmolarity, and osmolality of the calcium gluconate solution b. In your own words, describe the behavior of calcium ions as they diffuse across the semipermeable membrane. c.If you were to place a potentiometer electrode in compartment A and a reference electrode in compartment B, what voltage would you measure? What voltage would you measure if the electrodes were switched ? ** assuming free movement of water across the membrane, d. Calculate the number of glucose molecules you would need to add to compartment B to keep the volume of water in each compartment equal .
