An aqueous solution has an osmotic pressure of 4.92 atm at 300 K. Calculate the molarity of the solution. ( R = 0.082 L atm mol ⁻¹ K ⁻¹ )
Options
- A0.1 M
- B0.2 M
- C0.25 M
- D0.4 M
Correct answer
B. 0.2 M
Step-by-step solution
Using the formula for osmotic pressure: = CRT Where is the osmotic pressure, C is the molarity, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature. Substituting the given values: 4.92 = C 0.082 300 4.92 = C 24.6 C = 4.92 24.6 = 0.2 M Answer: 0.2 M
