Question

this statement is true right
The difference between osmosis and diffusion is that osmosis is the spreading of water from a high to low concentration while diffusion is the spreading of molecules or particles from a high to low concentration.

Answer 1

Did you write that down correctly? your statements says that both osmosis and diffusion are spreading of particles from a high to low concentration...

Answer 2

yea

Answer 3

so would that make it false

Answer 4

Then the statement is false

In osmosis, water will go from a low to a high concentration to fix the concentration difference. diffusion is the spreading of particles from a high to low concentration.

Answer 5

osmosis and diffusion is same the differencce is that diffusion is specific for water and salt solutions

Answer 6

thanks guys

Answer 7

@asmagul not correct. in osmosis the water will go to the side of the semi permeable wall which has the highest salt concentration. So it goes from low to high.. diffusion goes from high to low concentration

Answer 8

thomaster u r going wrong from low to high is active transport

Answer 9

depends on how you see it. the water concentration of the salt concentration

Answer 10

may be i cant explain clearly but osmosis and diffusion is transport of molecules from high to low

Answer 11

when you take the water concentration, then it goes from high water concentration to low water concentration. but if you take the salt concentration, the water will go from the low to high salt concentration.

Answer 12

im taking the dilute soln

Answer 13

the dilute soln?

Answer 14

now u r going to isotonic,hypotonic and hypertonic pressures

Answer 15

k bye

Answer 16

u r right but the answer of question is what im saying
