  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 10 months ago

  • Water potential is the difference between free energy of water molecules in a pure solvent and free energy of water molecules in a solution.
  • Solute potential (Ψs) and pressure potential (Ψp) are the two main components that determine water potential.
  • The greater the concentration of water in a system, the greater is its kinetic energy or ‘water potential’.
  • Water potential is denoted by the Greek symbol Psi or Ψ and is expressed in pressure units such as pascals (Pa).
  • The water potential of pure water at standard temperatures is taken to be zero
