Calculate the osmotic pressure of a 5.5m glucose solution at 20 degrees celsius

The osmotic pressure is a colligative property which depends upon the number of molecules and not the type of molecules

The relation between osmotic pressure and concentration is

πV = nRT

where

π = Osmotic pressure [ unit atm] = ?

V = volume

n = moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

T = temperature = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 K = 293.15 K

also

Molarity = moles / Volume

So

Molarity = n/V = 5.5 M

Putting values

π = MRT

π = 5.5 X 0.0821 X 293.15 = 132.37 atm

Osmotic pressure of given glucose solution will be 132.37 atm

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
