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 0.620.62 atm and 0.240.24 atm. Calculate the van't Hoff factor of barium chloride.

Options

  1. A2.582.58
  2. B2.462.46
  3. C2.152.15
  4. D2.842.84

Correct answer

A. 2.582.58

Step-by-step solution

The osmotic pressure of a solution is given by π=iCRT\pi = iCRT.

For the barium chloride solution:
π1=i1CRT=0.62\pi_{1} = i_{1}CRT = 0.62 atm

For the glucose solution:
π2=i2CRT=0.24\pi_{2} = i_{2}CRT = 0.24 atm

Since glucose is a non-electrolyte, its van't Hoff factor i2=1i_{2} = 1.

Therefore, CRT=0.24CRT = 0.24 atm.

Substituting the value of CRTCRT into the equation for barium chloride:
i1×0.24=0.62i_{1} \times 0.24 = 0.62

i1=0.620.24=3112≈2.58i_{1} = \dfrac{0.62}{0.24} = \dfrac{31}{12} \approx 2.58

The van't Hoff factor of barium chloride is 2.582.58.

Answer: 2.582.58
