Detailed Solution

When a solution is separated from the pure solvent by a semipermeable membrane, the solvent molecules pass through it from pure solvent side to the solution side. Thisprocess is called osmosis. However, in case of diffusion, solvent always move from a region of high concentration solution to a region of low concentration solution.
