Osmosis and Osmotic Pressure Quiz

Why does such phenomena occur and what are the effects of a solute on the osmotic pressure of a solution?

How can osmosis be stopped from flowing?

How does osmosis help in water purification?

Find the osmotic pressure of a 2.5 M solution of glucose at 25 °C.

Find the osmotic pressure of a 1.5 M solution of glucose at 30 °C.

Determine the osmotic pressure for a solution containing 10.0 g of nonelectrolyte solute dissolved in 20.00 L of solution at 25.0 °C. The molecular weight of the solute is 150 g/mol.

Determine the osmotic pressure for a solution containing 20.0 g of nonelectrolyte solute dissolved in 30.00 L of solution at 30.0 °C. The molecular weight of the solute is 120 g/mol.

A mass of 0.558 g of compound X is added to make 325 mL of the solution having an osmotic pressure of 675 mmHg at 25 oC. Find the molar mass of the compound X.

A mass of 0.6 g of compound X is added to make 300 mL of a solution having an osmotic pressure of 500 mmHg at 30 oC. Find the molar mass of the compound X.

Osmotic pressure is indirectly proportional to the molarity of the solutes. A semipermeable membrane allows both solvent and solute to pass through. Osmotic pressure is used to sustain the osmosis.
