C. 2.74\ dm ^3
Using the formula for osmotic pressure: = n V RT Rearranging for volume V: V = nRT Number of moles of solute n = 40 180 = 2 9 \ mol Substituting the given values: V = 2 9 0.0821 300 2 V = 24.63 9 V = 2.736\ L Since 1\ L = 1\ dm ^3, the volume of the solution is 2.74\ dm ^3. Answer: 2.74\ dm ^3
