Is there any kind of semipermeable membrane which would diffuse gas but wouldn't let liquid to pass. If yes what would that be?
Thanks, Vladimir.
Thanks, Vladimir.

alxm said:For any liquid and any gas? Probably not.(snip)
hubber26 said:(snip) But what about pressure.. would gas diffuse if on another side is liquid with slightly higher pressure? (like water does)
Bystander said:Absolutely. Everything is permeable in everything else. What permeation rates are you wanting to see?

The gas really doesn't matter as long as its not He or H. It would be good that its colored gas. My first thought was Cl2 made at home from electrolysis of NaCl dissolved in H2O.
A semipermeable membrane for gases is a thin barrier that allows certain gases to pass through while blocking others based on their size, solubility, and polarity.
A semipermeable membrane for gases works through a process called diffusion, where gases move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until equilibrium is reached.
Some examples of gases that can pass through a semipermeable membrane include oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. These gases are small enough to pass through the pores of the membrane.
Yes, a semipermeable membrane can be used to separate different gases from a mixture. This process is called gas separation or gas permeation and is used in various industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and natural gas processing.
A semipermeable membrane for gases is specifically designed to allow only certain gases to pass through, while a regular membrane may allow both gases and liquids to pass through. A semipermeable membrane also has smaller pores compared to a regular membrane, which allows for more selective gas separation.
