Question

$FeCl_3$ solution (side X) on reaction with K4[Fe(CN)6] (side Y) in aqueous solution gives blue colour. These are separated by a semipermeable membrane as shown. Due to osmosis, there is

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. A semipermeable membrane only allows passage of solvent molecules, blocking all solute ions. Since Fe^3+ and [Fe(CN)6]^4- cannot cross the membrane, they cannot react to form Prussian blue.
