Question

Calculate the osmotic pressure at 41 degrees C of a 0.078 M solution of glucose. Enter your answer using 2 decimal places!!!!

Answer 1

Osmotic pressure is: 2,01 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure that you needs to be apply to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane. The formula of osmotic pressure is:

π = M×R×T

Where:

M is molar concentration of dissolved species (units of mol/L). 0,078M

R is ideal gas constant (0.08206 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹, ).

T is the temperature on the Kelvin scale. 41°C +273,15 = 314,15 K

Replacing you have:

π = 0,078M×0.08206 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹×314,15 K

π = 2,01 atm
