Concept explainers

Osmosis

In simple words, osmosis is the slow, gradual movement of a liquid through a membrane. But there are nuances to this process. For instance, there has to be an imbalance in the distribution of solute in the liquid on either side of the membrane, which has to be semipermeable. The liquid in the region with a lower solute concentration moves to the region with a higher concentration, thereby displacing the solution in the process. The objective is to equalize the concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane; the displacement of liquid can be viewed as a byproduct of this equalization. Since there is no energy required to carry osmosis, it is considered a passive process.

We should all know that a calorie is the measure of energy required to raise 1 g of water by 1°C. We all know that energy off our food is measured in Calories and that to lose weight we just need to use more than we take in. So how come this isn't a good strategy for weight loss: drink cold water. For every degree you heat up each gram, you'll burn a calorie. If a pound of fat is 3500 Calories, just drink 3500 g of water (3.5 liters) and for every degree it gets warmer in the stomach, you lose a pound. ?
