The following solutions were prepared by dissolving 10 g of glucosein 250 ml of water of urea in 250 ml of water and 10 g of sucrose in 250 ml of water The right option for the decreasing order of osmotic pressure of these solutions is:
To determine the order of osmotic pressure for the given solutions, we need to use the formula for osmotic pressure:Where:• is the osmotic pressure.• is the van 't Hoff factor (number of particles the solute dissociates into).• is the molar concentration of the solution.• is the ideal gas constant.• is the temperature in Kelvin.Since all solutions are prepared in the same volume of water (250 ml), and assuming the temperature is constant,the osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the product of the van 't Hoff factor and the molar concentration:Let's calculate the molar concentration for each solution:1. For glucose Molar mass of glucose Moles of glucose Concentration Van 't Hoff factor (glucose does not dissociate)2. For urea Molar mass of urea Moles of urea Concentration Van 't Hoff factor (urea does not dissociate)3. For sucrose Molar mass of sucrose Moles of sucrose Concentration Van 't Hoff factor (sucrose does not dissociate)Now, calculate the osmotic pressure for each solution:Comparing the values:Thus, the decreasing order of osmotic pressure is:Therefore, the correct option is Option 1.
