FAQ

What is the Osmotic Pressure?
The Osmotic Pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane. Osmotic Pressure is usually measured using the Pascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Osmotic Pressure is always negative. Typically, the value of Osmotic Pressure is greater than 0.
Can the Osmotic Pressure be negative?
Yes, the Osmotic Pressure, measured in Pressure can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Osmotic Pressure?
Osmotic Pressure is usually measured using the Pascal[Pa] for Pressure. Kilopascal[Pa], Bar[Pa], Pound Per Square Inch[Pa] are the few other units in which Osmotic Pressure can be measured.
