Answer to Problem 11.92QA

Solution:

Osmotic pressures are as follows:

aNaCl: 0.120 atm

bMgCl2:0.260 atm

cMixture:0.360 atm

Explanation of Solution

1. Concept:

NaClNa++Cl-

NaCl will dissociate into two ion as per the above equation, so the value for van’t Hoff’s factor (i) = 2

MgCl2Mg2++2Cl-

MgCl2 will dissociate into a total of three ions as per the above equation, so the value for van’t Hoff’s factor (i) = 3

2. Formula:

i. π=i ×M ×R ×T

Where, π is the osmotic pressure in atmosphere, M is the molar concentration (molarity) of all the particles in any solution, R is the universal gas constant (0.08206L×atmmol×K), T is the absolute temperature (in Kelvin).

A mole is the SI unit of amount chemical substance. When writing units, it is written as “mol”.

ii. Molarity is defined as:

molarityM=moles of solute L of solution

3. Given:

i. volume of NaCl=100.0 mL

ii. molarity of NaCl=2.50 mM

iii. volume of MgCl2=80.0 mL

iv. molarity of MgCl2=3.60 mM

v. temperature T=200C

4. Calculations:

temperature in K=(20+273.15)=293.15 K

a. Osmotic pressure (π) for NaCl:

Converting given mill molar solution into Molar solution as follows:

M inmolL=2.50 mM×1M1000 nM=0.0025 M=0.0025molL

Calculating osmotic pressure for NaCl:

π=2×0.0025molL×0.08206L.atmmol.K×293.15 K =0.120 atm

b. Osmotic pressure for MgCl2:

Converting given mill molar solution into Molar solution as follows:

M inmolL=3.60 mM×1M1000 nM=0.0036 M=0.0036molL

π=3×0.0036molL×0.08206L.atmmol.K×293.15 K= 0.260 atm

c. Osmotic pressure for mixture of solution:

volume of NaCl in L=100.0 mL×1L1000 mL=0.1 L

molarityM=moles of solute L of solution

0.0025 M=moles NaCl0.1 L

moles of NaCl=0.00025 mol

volume of MgCl2 in L=80.0 mL×1L1000 mL=0.08 L

molarityM=moles of solute L of solution

0.0036 M=mol MgCl20.08 L

moles of NaCl=0.000288 mol

Total moles of mixture=0.00025 mol+0.000288 mol=0.000538 mol

Total volume of mixture=0.1 L+0.08L=0.18 L

i=2+3=5

molarity of mixture=0.000538 mol0.18 L=0.00299molL

π=5×0.00299molL×0.08206L.atmmol.K×293.15 K

π=0.360 atm

Conclusion:

Osmotic pressures are as follows:

aNaCl: 0.120 atm

bMgCl2:0.260 atm

cMixture:0.360 atm
