Question

write about the Osmotic pressure ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Osmotic pressure : Osmosis can be demonstrated with experimental set up Semipermeable membrane is firmly fastened across the mouth of thistle tube. The solution of interest is placed inside an inverted thistle tube. This part of the tube and the membrane are then immersed in a container of pure water.

As a result, some of the solvent passes through the membrane into the solution. It causes the liquid level in the tube to rise. The liquid column in the tube creates hydrostatic pressure that pushes the solvent back through the membrane into the container. The column of liquid in the tube continues to rise and eventually stops rising. At this stage hydrostatic pressure developed is sufficient to force solvent molecules back through the membrane into the container at the same rate they enter the solution

Answer 2

Answer:

Osmotic Pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane.[1] It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in pure solvent by osmosis. Potential osmotic pressure is the maximum osmotic pressure that could develop in a solution if it were separated from its pure solvent by a semipermeable membrane.

Osmosis occurs when two solutions containing different concentrations of solute are separated by a selectively permeable membrane. Solvent molecules pass preferentially through the membrane from the low-concentration solution to the solution with higher solute concentration. The transfer of solvent molecules will continue until equilibrium is attain
