Question

(Q69) Considering a semipermeable membrane that will allow the movement of water particles by
osmosis. Which of the following statements best describes the outcome as a result of osmosis?
O Solvent will move to the solution side of the membrane, increasing the hydrostatic pressure on the solution side
The solute will move to the solvent side, resulting in an increase in volume on the solution side
O Solvent will move to the solution side of the membrane, resulting in a decrease in the hydrostatic pressure on
the solution side
The solute will move to the solvent side, resulting in an increase in volume on the solvent side
O There will be equal amounts of pure solute and solvent at equlibrium

Expert Solution

Step 1

The flow of solvent molecules from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution or through solvent to solution through a semipermeable membrane is known as osmosis. The pressure created by the flow of solvent molecules from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution is known as osmotic pressure.
