The osmotic pressure of barium chloride and glucose solution of the...
The osmotic pressure of barium chloride and glucose solution of the same concentration at the same temperature are respectively atm and atm. Calculate the van't Hoff factor of barium chloride.
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
The osmotic pressure of a solution is given by .
For the barium chloride solution:
atm
For the glucose solution:
atm
Since glucose is a non-electrolyte, its van't Hoff factor .
Therefore, atm.
Substituting the value of into the equation for barium chloride:
The van't Hoff factor of barium chloride is .
Answer:
