Osmosis
The natural tendency for water to spontaneously pass through a semipermeable membrane separating two solutions of different concentrations (strengths). The water will naturally pass from the weaker (less concentrated) solution containing fewer particles of dissolved substance to the stronger (more concentrated) solution containing more particles of a dissolved substance. The natural osmosis causes the stronger solution to become more diluted, and tends to equalize the strength of the solutions on both sides of the membrane.
