Question 42 of 50
Q.(i) What is van't Hoff factor?
(ii) 36 g of glucose dissolved per litre of the solution has an osmotic pressure 4.98 bar at 300 K. If the osmotic pressure of the solution is 1.52 bar at the same temperature, what would be its molar concentration? (Given, molar mass of glucose = 180 g mol-1) [1+2]

- van't Hoff factor: It measures the deviation of a solute's actual colligative behaviour from ideal (non-dissociating, non-associating) behaviour: for dissociating solutes (electrolytes), for associating solutes, and for an ideal non-electrolyte like glucose.
- Finding the new molar concentration: Given: 36 g glucose per litre, bar at K, molar mass of glucose g mol. Concentration: mol L. Since glucose is a non-electrolyte (), : …
