    The osmotic pressure will cause the water moves to glucose solution, lowering it concentration gradually. Increased water in glucose solution will increase hydrostatic pressure that will cause water molecule moves from glucose solution.

    In equilbrium, the hydrostatic pressure will be equal to the osmotic pressure. This will cause the water molecule moved to glucose solution (caused by osmotic pressure) equal to water moves from glucose solution (causes by hydrostatic pressure)
