No. the water Will remain stationary, Osmosis would occur where one side had a higher concentration but in this case there is an equilibrium and it will be static

if the water is pure then no, there will be no net movement. The water will move back and forth in equal amounts. If there is anything else disolved in the water and the concentration of this is higher on one side than the other then the water will move through the membrane into the higher concentraion solution until they are equal across the membrane.

If the concentrations are equal (not just the amount), then there will be no net movement of water.

No,there will still be movement of water molecules but the amount of water leaving is the same as the number of water molecules entering.

If it is the same water, no.
If the water is different, for example if one side is salt water and one is fresh, you will see a movement IF it is a permiable membrane.
