If 1.02% of glycerin is isotonic with a 2% solution of glucose, calculate the molar mass of glycerin if that of glucose is 180g./mol
Options
- A93.0
- B91.8
- C90.2
- D96.4
Correct answer
B. 91.8
Step-by-step solution
For isotonic solutions, the osmotic pressures are equal, .
Since both glycerin and glucose are non-electrolytes, their van't Hoff factors are . Therefore, their molar concentrations are equal, .
Let the molar mass of glycerin be . A solution of glycerin contains in of solution, and a solution of glucose contains in of solution.
Concentration of glycerin,
Concentration of glucose,
Equating and :
