Osmotic pressure π of a dilute solution obeys π = C R T. Here C represents
A{'text': 'Mole fraction of solute', 'label': 'A'}
B{'text': 'Molality of the solution', 'label': 'B'}
C{'text': 'Mass fraction of solute', 'label': 'C'}
D{'text': 'Molarity of the solution', 'label': 'D'}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. {'text': 'Molarity of the solution', 'label': 'D'}
1. The van't Hoff osmotic pressure formula is π = C R T.
2. Here C is the molar concentration (molarity) of the solute in mol/L.
3. R is the gas constant, T is temperature in K.
4. Osmotic pressure is a colligative property; C accounts for particle count per unit volume.
