Solution

1) Osmosis is defined as a process where solvent (for example, water) moves from a region of its higher concentration to lower concentration across a semipermeable membrane.

2)Chamber A has more solvent and less solute than chamber B and thus the direction of osmosis will be from chamber A to chamber B
