If the osmotic pressure of a 0.010 M aqueous solution of sucrose at 27^ C is 0.25 atm , then the osmotic pressure of a 0.010 M aqueous solution of NaCl at 27^ C is
Options
- A0.062 atm
- B0.12 atm
- C0.25 atm
- D0.50 atm
Correct answer
D. 0.50 atm
Step-by-step solution
Osmotic pressure =i C R T , For both the solutions, all other conditions are similar except 'i' which is 1.0 for sucrose while 2.0 for NaCl . Therefore, osmotic pressure of NaCl aligned & =2 0.25 & =0.50 ~atm aligned
