The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Understanding Semi-Permeable Membranes**: A semi-permeable membrane is a type of barrier that allows certain molecules or ions to pass through it while blocking others. This property is crucial in various biological and chemical processes. 2. **Identifying the Chemical Composition**: The question asks about the chemical nature of a semi-permeable membrane. Common examples of semi-permeable membranes include those made from specific compounds. 3. **Recognizing Common Materials**: Two well-known materials that can form semi-permeable membranes are: - Cupric Ferrocyanide (Cu2[Fe(CN)6]) - Calcium Phosphate (Ca3(PO4)2) 4. **Analyzing the Options**: The video transcript mentions that the semi-permeable membrane is chemically cupric ferrocyanide. It also notes that calcium phosphate is another compound associated with semi-permeable membranes. 5. **Conclusion**: Since the question specifically asks for the chemical composition of a semi-permeable membrane and the video confirms that cupric ferrocyanide is one of the correct answers, we conclude that the answer is cupric ferrocyanide. **Final Answer**: A. Cupric Ferrocyanide ---
