A semipermeable membrane used in the measurement of osmotic pressure of a solution allows the passage of

A membrane, which permits the solvent and not the solute to pass through it is termed as

Assertion (A) When solution is separted from the pure solved semipermeable membrane, the solvent molecules pass through it from pure solvent side to the solution side. Reason (R ) Diffusion solvent occurs from a region of concentration solution to a region of low concentration soluton.

Assertion The bioligical membranes are differtntially or selcetively permeable Reason Semipermeable membrane allow penertration of only solvent molcutes but not the solute particles f

Colligative properties are the physical changes that result from adding solute to a solvent. These depend on how many solute particles are present as well as the solvent amount, but they do not depend on the type of solute particles, although do depend on the type of solvent.Osmotic pressure is a colligative property of solutions that is observed using a semipermeable membrane, a barrier with pores small enough to allow solvent molecules to pass through but not solute molecules or ions Transport in lants,survival of cells, killing of snails and slugs swelling of resin are some examples where osmotic pressure seems applicable in real life situations. Isotonic solutions are solutions which have:
