Best Answer

This statement means that as the solute concentration increases, the concentration of water decreases. Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent such as water. Osmosis occurs whenever there is a difference of water concentrations between two sides of a membrane. The water diffuses to the side of the membrane which contains the highest concentration of solutes.

What is the Osmolarity of 0.4 M Ammonium3 PO4 explain how?

Molarity = moles of solute / L of solutionOsmolarity = osmoles of solute / L of solution1 Osmole = 1 mole of osmotically-active solute. (NH4)3PO4 dissociates into 3 NH4+ ions and 1 PO4- ion (total 4 solute particles), so 4 osmoles of (NH4)3PO4 result from 1 mole of (NH4)3PO4. Therefore, because 0.4 moles (NH4)3PO4 per Liter solution are in an 0.4 M solution, 1.6 osmoles of (NH4)3PO4 per Liter solution are present. Thus...Osmolarity = osmoles of solute / L of solution = 1.6 osmoles of (NH4)3PO4 / L of solution = 1.6 OsM
