The correct Answer is:
To calculate the molecular mass of a non-volatile solute in terms of osmotic pressure, we can use the formula for osmotic pressure, which is given by: \[ \pi = CRT \] Where: - \(\pi\) = osmotic pressure - \(C\) = concentration of the solution (in moles per liter) - \(R\) = gas constant - \(T\) = temperature in Kelvin ### Step 1: Express Concentration in Terms of Moles and Volume The concentration \(C\) can be expressed in terms of the mass of the solute and its molecular mass: \[ C = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{volume of solution}} = \frac{\frac{m_2}{M_2}}{V} \] Where: - \(m_2\) = mass of the solute - \(M_2\) = molecular mass of the solute - \(V\) = volume of the solution ### Step 2: Substitute Concentration into the Osmotic Pressure Formula Substituting the expression for concentration \(C\) into the osmotic pressure formula: \[ \pi = \left(\frac{m_2}{M_2 V}\right)RT \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the Equation to Solve for Molecular Mass Rearranging the equation to solve for the molecular mass \(M_2\): \[ \pi = \frac{m_2 RT}{M_2 V} \] Multiplying both sides by \(M_2 V\): \[ \pi M_2 V = m_2 RT \] Now, isolating \(M_2\): \[ M_2 = \frac{m_2 RT}{\pi V} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the molecular mass \(M_2\) of the solute can be calculated using the formula: \[ M_2 = \frac{m_2 RT}{\pi V} \]
