Question

Why a solution kept at atmospheric pressure has water potential equal to solute potential...???

No spamming please...​

Answer 1

Answer:

At atmospheric pressure (sea level, and it is taken as 1 atm) there is no hydrostatic pressure on water in the cell, and thus the value of Pressure potential is effectively zero, making water potential equal to solute potential.

Answer 2

Answer:

here pressure potential is zero

Explanation:

WATER POTENTIAL=SOLUTE POTENTIAL+PRESSURE POTENTIAL

This is the general formula.so if a solution is kept at atmospheric pressure there is no pressure to act on the solution to make the particles to diffuse.thus the pressure potential becomes zero. so according to the formula WATER POTENTIAL=SOLUTE POTENTIAL
