When two miscible liquids are separated by a porouspartition, they diffuse one into the other. A simpleendosmometer for showing this action is shown in Fig4. It consists of a small funnel having its mouthclosed by a piece of bladder held in place by a wide rub-ber band stretched around the rim of the funnel. Thefunnel thus prepared is immersed in water, for example,and is filled to the level of the water witVi sirup ofsugar. The water passes through the bladder into thefunnel and the sirup passes out. The rise of the liquidin the funnel indicates that the water enters morerapidly than the sirup escapes. The presence of thesirup in the water may be detected by taste. That
