Is Meant by Electroosmosis?

Electroosmosis is the flow of liquid that is in contact with a charged solid surface when an electric field is applied, and it becomes an important consideration with the increased surface area-to-volume ratio associated with small diameter capillaries.

What is meant by electro osmosis Class 12?

Electro-osmosis:- it may be defined as a phenomenon in which the molecules of the dispersion medium are allowed to move under influence of an electric field where as colloidal particles are not allowed to move.

What is meant by electro osmotic flow?

Definition. Electroosmotic flow is the bulk liquid motion that results when an externally applied electric field interacts with the net surplus of charged ions in the diffuse part of an electrical double layer.
