Chemistry Question on Colligative Properties
As a result of osmosis, the volume of concentrate solution:
A
increases
B
decreases
C
remains constant
D
first increase and then decrease
Answer
increases
Explanation
Solution
In the process of osmosis, the solvent molecules flow from dilute solution to concentrate solution, hence the volume of concentrate solution always increase during osmosis. When osmosis stops, the volume of that solution be constant.
