Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from an area where they are at a higher concentration to areas where they are at a lower concentration. This is due to the random movement of the molecules.
No, if the osmotic pressure is greater, it typically indicates that the number of solute particles is higher. Osmotic pressure is directly related to the concentration of solute particles in a solution; as the concentration increases, the osmotic pressure also increases. Therefore, a greater osmotic pressure suggests a higher number of solute particles in the solution.
A solution with the same solute concentration as another (e.g. human body fluids) is called isotonic.
A solution which has a lesser concentration of particles is said to be dilute.
The difference between diffusion and osmosis is that diffusion is the passive movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration down the concentration gradient. Particles will continue to move until dynamic equilibrium is reached, which is a state where the particles are evenly spread.Osmosis is the movement of water from a hypotonic solution (solution with less concentration) to a hypertonic solution (solution with a greater concentration of solute). Water will move to even the concentration of the two solutions to establish a state where both solutions are isotonic. ( two solutions have the same concentration).
the movement of particles from areas of greater concentration to area of lesser concentration.
Hypotonic
Diffused.
The greater the concentration of salt in an aqueous solution, the higher the electrical conductivity. This is because, with a greater salt concentration, there are more ions available to serve as a path for electron transfer in the solution.
When comparing two solutions, the solution with the greater concentration of solute is called hypertonic. This means that it has a higher solute concentration compared to the other solution.
A solution with a pH of 9 has a greater concentration of hydroxide ions than a solution with a pH of 3. The pH scale is a logarithmic scale, with each unit representing a tenfold difference in hydrogen ion concentration. Therefore, a solution with a pH of 9 has a concentration of hydroxide ions 1,000 times greater than a solution with a pH of 3.
A solution with a greater concentration of H+ ions has a lower pH value, indicating an acidic solution, while a solution with a greater concentration of OH- ions has a higher pH value, indicating a basic solution. The concentration of H+ and OH- ions in a solution are inversely related in water, following the equation: [H+][OH-] = 10^-14 at 25°C.
