Match the statement given in column I with the phenomenon given in column II.
No | Column I | Column II | |
(i) |
Dispersion medium moves in an electric field |
(a) |
Osmosis |
(ii) |
Solvent molecules pass through semipermeable |
(b) |
Electrophoresis |
(iii) |
Movement of charged colloidal particles under the influence of applied electric potential towards oppositely charged electrodes |
(c) | Electroosmosis |
(iv) |
Solvent molecules pass through semipermeable membranes towards solution side |
(d) | Reverse osmosis |
Electroosmosis is the motion of liquid induced by an applied potential across a porous material, membrane, etc. The dispersion liquid moves according to the electric field.
(ii)→(d)
Reverse osmosis is the process of forcing a solvent from a region of high solute concentration to a region of low-solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane by applying a pressure in excess of the osmotic pressure.
Electrophoresis is a separation technique that is based on the mobility of ions in an electric field. Positively charged ions migrate towards a negative electrode and negatively charged ions migrate toward a positive electrode.
(iv)→(a)
Osmosis is the process where solvent molecules move through a semipermeable membrane from a dilute solution/solvent into a more concentrated solution. So, the solvent molecules pass to the solution side under a semi-permeable membrane.
