Read the following statements and choose the correct answer from the options given below: (A). Diffusion is the movement of ions/ atoms/ molecules of a substance from the region of their lower concentration to the region of their higher concentration. (B). Diffusion results in the diffusion pressure (D. P.) which is directly proportional to the number of diffusing particles. (C). Diffusion pressure of pure solvent (p
Options
- A(A), (B) and (D) only.
- B(A), (B) and (C) only.
- C(B), (C) and (D) only.
- D(B) and (D) only.
Correct answer
D. (B) and (D) only.
Step-by-step solution
Statement (A) is incorrect because diffusion is the movement of particles from a region of their higher concentration to a region of their lower concentration. Statement (B) is correct because diffusion pressure is directly proportional to the concentration or number of diffusing particles. Statement (C) is incorrect because the diffusion pressure of a pure solvent is maximum and is always greater than the diffusion pressure of the solvent in a solution. Statement (D) is correct because Diffusion Pressure Deficit (
