What is the osmotic pressure of a 5.00% mass/volume aqueous glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆,180.2 g/mol)solution at 37.0 $\circ$ C?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To calculate osmotic pressure, use the formula π = iMRT. First, convert 5.00% m/v to molarity: 5.00 g/100 mL = 50 g/L. Molarity = 50 g/L ÷ 180.2 g/mol = 0.277 mol/L. Convert 37°C to Kelvin: 37 + 273 = 310 K. Using R = 0.0821 L·atm/mol·K, π = (1)(0.277 mol/L)(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)(310 K) = 7.06 atm.
