Question : Based on the figure given below which of the following statements is not correct ?

Answer»

Movement of SOLVENT molecules will take place from chamber `A`to `B`.
Movement of solute will take place from `A` to `B`
Presence of a semi-permeableis a per- requisite for this process to occur.
the direction and rate of osmosis DEPENDS on both the PRESSURE gradient and concentration gradient.

Solution :Solution A and solution B are separated by a semi-permeable membrane. Solution A has higher water potential. THEREFORE, OSMOTIC movement of water molecules (solvent molecules) will occur from solution A to B solution particles cannot pass through semi-peemeable membrane.
