Define Semipermeable membrane
Explain the term semipermeable membrane.
Solution 1
Semipermeable membrane: It is a membrane which allows the solvent molecules, but not the solute molecules, to pass through it.
Solution 2
Semipermeable membrane is a film such as cellophane which has pores large enough to allow the solvent molecules to pass through them.
