Chapter 12, Problem 131P(choose chapter or problem)
A very long pipe is capped at one end with a semipermeable membrane. How deep (in meters) must the pipe be immersed into the sea for freshwater to begin to pass through the membrane? Assume the water to be at 20°C and treat it as a 0.70 M NaCl solution. The density of seawater is 1.03 g/\(c m^{3}\) and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/\(s^{2}\).
