In potato osmometer, which of the following process is involved?
Options
(a) physical process
(b) physiological process
(c) chemical process
(d) physico-chemical process
Correct Answer:
physico-chemical process
Explanation:
In potato osmometer, the potato scoop is filled with sugar solution and is kept in a beaker containing water. Now, due to osmosis which is the net movement of water molecules from a region of their higher concentration to a region where their concentration is low through a differentially permeable membrane, water comes inside the potato.Since a chemical gradient is developed a long which there is physical movement of water, it is a physico-chemical process.
