Question
(A): Osmosis involves movement of solvent molecules from its lower concentration to its higher concentration.(R): Solution having the same osmotic pressure are called isotonic solution.
Step 1
Osmosis is a process that involves the movement of solvent molecules from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. This is done through a semi-permeable membrane. This is what is stated in statement (A). Therefore, statement (A) is Show more…
