What is an osmotically active substance?

It is a solute that causes osmosis to occur. For instance, if a solution contains sucrose and the membrane is impermeable to sucrose,, water will move out of the cell and into the solution to dilute it. Hence the solution is hypertonic. Sucrose would be considered an osmotically active solution in this case because it induces osmosis of water across a membrane.
