Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) is a normal blood test that indicate  how well the kidneys and liver are working. The BUN test  measures the amount of urea present in the blood. The  concentration of BUN level of the blood should not be greater than  20.0mg/dL in blood. If the major contributor for BUN is urea (CH4N2O). What would be the osmotic pressure of 20.0mg/dL of  urea dissolved in water at 37oC?
