Question

At a molecular level, explain why in osmosis there is a net migration of solvent from the side of the membrane less concentrated in solute to the side more concentrated in solute by selecting all that apply.

The side of the membrane that is less concentrated in solute is more concentrated in solvent. At a molecular level, explain why in osmosis there is a net migration of solvent from the side of the membrane less concentrated in solute to the side more concentrated in solute by selecting all that apply. The side of the membrane that is less concentrated in solute is more concentrated in solvent. The side of the membrane that is less concentrated in solute is less concentrated in solvent. The escaping tendency of the solvent increases with its concentration. The difference in escaping tendency results in a net migration of solvent from the side less concentrated in solute to the side more concentrated in solute. The difference in escaping tendency results in a net migration of solvent to the side less concentrated in solute from the side more concentrated in solute. None of these.
