What is the osmotic pressure of a solution containing 1 mole of glucose in 2 liters of solution at 25 °C? (R = 0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol))
Correct Answer: 0.82 atm
  • Step 1: Identify the formula for osmotic pressure, which is π = nRT/V.
  • Step 2: Determine the values needed for the formula: n (number of moles) = 1 mole, R (gas constant) = 0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol), T (temperature in Kelvin) = 25 °C + 273 = 298 K, and V (volume in liters) = 2 L.
  • Step 3: Plug the values into the formula: π = (1 mol)(0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol))(298 K) / 2 L.
  • Step 4: Calculate the numerator: (1 mol)(0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol))(298 K) = 24.4758 L·atm.
  • Step 5: Divide the result from Step 4 by the volume (2 L): 24.4758 L·atm / 2 L = 12.2379 atm.
  • Step 6: The final answer for osmotic pressure is approximately 0.82 atm.
