Osmotic pressure:


  1. is an indication of the force with which pure water moves into that solution.
  2. is a measure of the tendency of water to move into the solution.
  3. is the drawing power of water and depends on the number of molecules in the solution.
  4. of a solution is called its osmolarity in mosmol/kg.

B: solutions with high “osmotic pressure” are concentrated solutions and so water will diffuse into such solutions from solutions of lower concentration – a process known as osmosis. The other answers are nonsense.
