Which of the following would exert maximum osmotic pressure?

Which of the following would exert maximum osmotic pressure?

Options

  1. ADecinormal aluminium sulphate
  2. BDecinormal barium chloride
  3. CDecinormal sodium chloride
  4. DA solution obtained by mixing equal volumes of (2) and (3) and filtering

Correct answer

A. Decinormal aluminium sulphate

Step-by-step solution

Osmotic pressure is a colligative property, i.e., depends upon the number of particles of solute. Thus, the solution in which solute gives maximum number of ions, exerts maximum osmotic pressure. Number of particles, (1) In decinormal aluminium sulphate Al2(SO4)3⟶2Al3++3SO42−⏟5 particles \mathrm{Al}_2\left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)_3 \longrightarrow \underbrace{2 \mathrm{Al}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{SO}_4^{2-}}_{5 \text{ particles }} (2) In decinormal barium chloride, BaCl2⟶Ba2++2Cl−⏟3 particles \mathrm{BaCl}_2 \longrightarrow \underbrace{\mathrm{Ba}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-}}_{3 \text{ particles }} (3) In decinormal sodium chloride, NaCl⟶Na++Cl−⏟2 particles \mathrm{NaCl} \longrightarrow \underbrace{\mathrm{Na}^{+}+\mathrm{Cl}^{-}}_{2 \text{ particles }} (4) When equal volumes of (2) and (3) are mixed, the concentration becomes half of present concentration. Thus, decinormal aluminium sulphate exerts maximum osmotic pressure.
