Question

DURING OSMOSIS FLOW OF WATER Through a semipermeable membrane IS FROM

1: Solution having lower concentration only

2:From solution having high concentration

3:From both sides of semipermeable membrane with equal flow rates

4: From both sides of semipermeable membrane with unequal flow rates

I think answer to be 1 but in the book it's given that answer is no.4 WHY?

Answer 1

the flow of water is from both sides of semi permiable membrane having higher and lower concentration but higher volume of water goes to the lower concentration side

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, in process of osmosis, the density or concentration of fluids is not dependent.

Rather they depends on the pressure on either sides of a osmostic membrane.
