Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The osmotic pressure in given solution has to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Osmotic pressure
The additional pressure that has to be given to solution in order to stop osmosis is called as osmotic pressure. Osmosis is the run of solvent into a solution by means of semipermeable membrane.
Osmotic pressure can be calculated by the equation,
