The pressure needed to stop osmosis is called?
The osmotic pressure. This is the pressure which would have to be applied to a solution to stop water entering if it was separated from pure water by a semipermeable membrane.
What is the name of the pressure that must be exerted on a solution to prevent the passage of solvent molecules into a solution when the solution and solvent are separated by a semipermeable membrane?
That pressure is called osmotic pressure. It is the pressure needed to prevent the flow of solvent molecules from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution through a semipermeable membrane.
What is pressure is equal to the tendency of water to enter one solution from another due to a concentration gradient?
Osmotic pressure is the tendency of water to move from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane. This process helps to equalize the concentration of solute particles on both sides of the membrane.
To prevent osmotic flow of water across the membrane pressure sould be applied to which solution?
Pressure should be applied to the hypertonic solution to prevent osmotic flow of water across the membrane. This helps to balance the concentration gradient and prevent excessive water movement into the hypertonic solution.
What is an osometer?
An osmometer is a device used to measure the osmotic pressure of a solution. It works by comparing the pressure needed to prevent solvent from passing through a semipermeable membrane between two compartments containing different concentrations of solute. This allows for the determination of the solute concentration in a solution.
What is the name of Pressure that must be exerted onto a solution in order to prevent water from diffusing into that solution through a semipermeable membrane?
osmotic pressure
The pressure needed to stop osmosis is called?
The osmotic pressure. This is the pressure which would have to be applied to a solution to stop water entering if it was separated from pure water by a semipermeable membrane.
What is the name of the pressure that must be exerted on a solution to prevent the passage of solvent molecules into a solution when the solution and solvent are separated by a semipermeable membrane?
That pressure is called osmotic pressure. It is the pressure needed to prevent the flow of solvent molecules from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution through a semipermeable membrane.
What does an osmometer measure?
An osmometer measures the concentration of solute particles in a solution. It does this by determining the osmotic pressure, which is the pressure generated by the movement of solvent molecules across a semipermeable membrane to achieve equilibrium.
What is osmosis and what is osmotic pressure?

What are the units OF osmotic pressure?
The units of osmotic pressure are typically expressed in pascals (Pa) or atmospheres (atm). It represents the pressure exerted by a solution to prevent the flow of additional solvent into the solution through a semipermeable membrane.
What is the ability of a solution to do work by osmosis?
The ability of a solution to do work by osmosis is determined by its osmotic pressure, which is the pressure needed to stop the flow of solvent into the solution through a semipermeable membrane. Solutions with higher osmotic pressure can exert more force and do more work through osmosis.
What is the term for the pressure that develpes when two solutions of varying conceration are separated by a membrane?
Osmotic pressure... you must be in my nutrition class :-)
What is the significance of the r value in determining osmotic pressure in a solution?
The r value in determining osmotic pressure in a solution is significant because it represents the ideal gas constant. This constant is used in the formula for calculating osmotic pressure, which helps to understand the movement of solvent molecules across a semipermeable membrane. A higher r value indicates a higher osmotic pressure, which can impact various biological and chemical processes.
What is the osmotic pressure of pure water?
The osmotic pressure of pure water is 0. The osmotic pressure is relative to pure water, thus semipermeable membrane on both sides pure water does not have any movement of solvent.
How would a fluid with a high solute concentration affect osmotic pressure when compared to water?
A fluid with a high solute concentration would have a higher osmotic pressure compared to water. This is because the presence of more solute particles in the solution increases the pulling force required to prevent water from moving across a semipermeable membrane, leading to a higher osmotic pressure.
Is a colligative property of solutions in which the pressure created by osmosis equals the pressure required to prevent osmosis?
Yes, the colligative property you are referring to is osmotic pressure. Osmotic pressure is the pressure required to prevent the flow of solvent across a semipermeable membrane. It is directly proportional to the concentration of solute particles in the solution.
