When cells of skeletal vacuoles of a frog were placed in a series of `NaCl` solutions of different concentration solution at `25^(@)C`, it was observed microscopically that they remained unchaged in `0.7%` solution, shrank in a more concentrated and swelled in more dilute solution. Water freezes from the `0.7%` salt solutions at `-406^(@)C`. What is the osmotic pressure of the cell cytoplasm at `25^(@)C`. `(K=_(f)=1.86 kg "mol"^(-1) K)`

To find the osmotic pressure of the cell cytoplasm at 25°C, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given data - We have a 0.7% NaCl solution. - The freezing point depression (ΔTf) is given as -40.6°C. - The cryoscopic constant (Kf) for NaCl is 1.86 kg/mol·K. - We need to find the osmotic pressure (π) at 25°C. ...
