Question
A living cell contains a solution which is isotonic with 0.2 M glucose solution. What osmotic pressure develops when the cell is placed in 0.05 M BaCl2 solution at 300 K?
Options
A.1.23 atm
B.1.23 atm
C.6.15 atm
D.None of these
Solution
π = (iC1 - i2C2) RT
⇒ (1 × 0.2 - 3 × 0.05) 0.0821 × 300
⇒ 1.23 atm
⇒ (1 × 0.2 - 3 × 0.05) 0.0821 × 300
⇒ 1.23 atm
