Question

Which applies to Osmosis? 1. Osmosis occurs when the solvent molecules move from a solution of higher solute concentration to a solution of lower solute concentration. 2. The movement of the solvent particles from the concentrated solution to the dilute solution is known as reverse osmosis. 3. Solute particles can move in both directions through the semipermeable membrane. 4. The solvent can ideally move in both directions through the semipermeable membrane. 5. A pressure equal to that of the osmotic pressure will result in reverse osmosis.

Explanation / Answer

Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules from a region of dilute solution to a region of concentrated solution through a semi permeable membrane.

Option 2 is right. Movement of solvent from concentrated solution to dilute solution is known through a semi permeable membrane is called as reverse osmosis.
