Question
The total concentration of dissolved particles inside red blood cells is approximately 0.30 M and the membrane surrounding the cells is semipermeable. What would be the osmotic pressure (in atmosphere) inside the cells become if the cells were removed from the blood plasma and placed in pure water at 298 K ?
Options
A.7.34 atm
B.1.78 atm
C.2.34 atm
D.0.74 atm
Solution
Osmotic pressure = CRT
= 0.30 × 0.082 × 298 = 7.34 atm
= 0.30 × 0.082 × 298 = 7.34 atm
