what is osmosis?
and it's formula
Answers
Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.
(1) Formula for "osmotic force": F=PS' or F=PS(1-[Ci]k) where F is "osmotic force"; P is the pressure on the membrane; S' is the osmotic effective membrane area; S is membrane total area; [Ci] is the molar concentration of the solute i in solution; k is the equilibrium constant, being the fraction of the ineffective
Answer:
It is a colligative property and is dependent on the concentration of solute particles in the solution. Osmotic pressure can be calculated with the help of the following formula: π = iCRT
