Osmosis and Osmotic Pressure

Chemistry ⇒ Solutions and Colloids

Osmosis and Osmotic Pressure starts at 11 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Osmosis and Osmotic Pressure. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 11
Define reverse osmosis.
Describe the role of osmosis in kidney dialysis.
Describe what happens to a plant cell in a hypotonic solution.
Explain the difference between osmosis and diffusion.
