Eventually, the concentration of "stuff" on either side of them will even out. A fish that lives in salt water will have somewhat salty water inside itself. Put it in freshwater, and the freshwater will, through osmosis, enter the fish, causing its cells to swell, and the fish will die. What will happen to a freshwater fish in the ocean?

Then, material flows from the less concentrated to the more concentrated side of the membrane. A membrane which is selective in the way just described is said to be semipermeable. Osmosis is of particular importance in living organisms, since most living tissue is semipermeable in one way or another.

Raoult's law is concerned with the vapor pressure depression of solutions. The boiling points of solutions are always higher, and the freezing points always lower, than those of the pure solvent.

It highlights the calculation and application of osmotic pressure in water purification, and methods like osmometry and chromatography for determining molar masses, especially of polymers. Furthermore, the page describes melting point depression as a technique for assessing purity in organic synthesis, particularly for pharmaceuticals.
