Assertion : 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. Reason : Diffusion of solvent occurs from a region of high concentration solution to a region of low concentration solution.

Question

Assertion : 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. Reason : Diffusion of solvent occurs from a region of high concentration solution to a region of low concentration solution., If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion., If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion., If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect., If the Assertion is incorrect but the Reason is correct.

Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion. When a solution is separation from the pure solvent by a semipermeable membrane, the solvent molecules pass through it from pure solvent side to the solution side. Solvent molecules always flow from lower concentration to higher concentration of solution.
