You fill a (fixed volume) dialysis bag with a solution of a protein (1 mM) in water, seal the opening tightly, and place the bag into a much larger volume of water. The dialysis bag is permeable to water but not the protein. a. Initially, the activity of the water is (less than / equal to / greater than) the activity of water on the outside. The activity of the protein is less than / equal to / greater than) the activity of the protein on the outside. b. For the transfer of a small amount of water through the membrane from inside to outside, AG is (less than zero / equal to zero / greater than zero) c. At equilibrium, the activity of the water inside is (less than / equal to / greater than) the activity of the water on the outside. The activity of the protein is (less than / equal to / greater than) the activity of the protein on the outside. d. For the small transfer of a small amount of water through the membrane from inside to outside at equilibrium, AG is (less than / equal to / greater than) zero.
