What is the situation? Provided a concentration gradient and a molecule that passes through a membrane, diffusion will happen. Generally small and nonpolar molecules will pass through a membrane down a concentration gradient.

That doesn't answer your question but it may be the answer your looking for.

Does osmosis require a semipermeable membrane?

Semi permeable membrane means a very thin layer of material which allows some molecule to pass through them and prevent some molecule to pass through them. Osmosis is the passage of water from a dilute solution via a membrane which is semi permeable to a more concentrate solution. So the membrane should be semi-permeable so as to only allow the movement of H2O molecules and not the other molecules of the mixture.


Is a bubble semipermeable?

No, a bubble is not semipermeable. A bubble is a thin film of soapy water enclosing air or gas, which is not selectively permeable to different substances like a semipermeable membrane is.
