Introduction

Osmosis is the movement of water across the semipermeable membrane driven by the difference in osmotic pressure. Osmotic pressure is the force that must be applied to a solution to resist water movement. Osmotic pressure(Π) is calculated using the formula:

Π =i C R T

where i is the van't Hoff factor, C is the molar concentration of the solute R is the gas constant and T is the temperature in Kelvin.

The product i · C is osmolarity.
