The more concentrated solution is hypertonic and osmotic pressure (a hydrostatic force whose sole purpose in life is to make concentrations equal) tends to move solvent into the more concentrated solution. It will stop rising when either a) the solution concentrations are the same on both sides of the membrane, or b) when the osmotic pressure becomes equal to the ambient air pressure.
What else can I help you with?
The process by which alcohol concentrations are increased?
It is [fractional] distillation. The mixture is heated until the constituent liquids evaporate. These condense at different temperature which allows them to be separated.
What causes osmotic pressure to develop in a cell?
Osmotic pressure occurs when two solutions of different concentrations are separated by a semi-permeable membrane. Often the solute cannot move through the membrane, so there is pressure for the water to move from the less concentrated side to the more concentrated side, to dilute it.
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 :-)
Why is mRNA separated into triplets?
they separated because each one separates into a different code for an amino acid.
How is petroleum separated into different compounds?
Fractional distillation
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.
Is the wealth in china separated or concentrated?
Roughly speaking due to Guanxi, it is actually concentrated in the hands of "a relatively few" individuals.
The process by which alcohol concentrations are increased?
It is [fractional] distillation. The mixture is heated until the constituent liquids evaporate. These condense at different temperature which allows them to be separated.
How do you separate hydrogen from carbon monoxide?
they may be separated by Liquefaction, but traces of CO from mixture are separated by passing through concentrated solution of NaOH.
What causes osmotic pressure to develop in a cell?
Osmotic pressure occurs when two solutions of different concentrations are separated by a semi-permeable membrane. Often the solute cannot move through the membrane, so there is pressure for the water to move from the less concentrated side to the more concentrated side, to dilute it.
When does osmosis occur?
Osmosis occurs when there is a semi-permeable membrane separating two solutions of different concentrations of solute, causing water molecules to move from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
What has more mass concentrated salt or diluted salt?
concenrated. diluted means it has been separated or mixed to spread it.
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 are the requirements for materials?
Osmosis occurs when there are two solutions of different concentration strength separated by a semipermeable membrane. The membrane must allow water to cross, but not the solutes. Water will then move from the solution of lower concentration strength across the membrane to the solution of higher concentration strength. This movement of water is called osmosis.
What membranes are there in osmosis?
Semipermeable membranes are used in osmosis. Semipermeable membranes let some molecules pass through them but not others, so they are partially or semi permeable. For example, the membrane may let smaller size molecules pass though but block larger molecules sort of like a sifter. Thus the two molecular substances can be separated.
Can mixtures be separated and how?
Yes, mixtures can be separated with a centrifuge, and mixed liquids and powders can be separated by different evaporation techniques.
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.
