Question
Chapter 11, Problem 85QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The explanation for the process of reverse osmosis is to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Osmosis is a process in which there is a net transfer of solvent particles through a barrier that does not allow the passage of solute particles. Reverse osmosis is a process where solvent molecules can be forced to flow from a higher solute concentration to a lower solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane by applying the required osmotic pressure externally.
