Compartments A and B are separated by a membrane that is permeable to K+ but not to Na+ or Cl-. At time zero, a solution of KCl is poured into compartment A and an equally concentrated solution of NaCl is poured into compartment B. Which would be true once equilibrium is reached?

A. Diffusion of K+ from A to B will be greater than the diffusion of K+ from B to A. B. The electrical potential difference and diffusion potential due to the concentration gradient for K+ will be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. C. The concentration of Cl- will be higher in B than it was at time zero. D. The concentration of Na+ in A will be higher than it was at time zero. E. There will be a potential difference across the membrane, with side B negative relative to side A.
