in a laboratory experiment, a student found that a 195-ml aqueous solution containing 2.494 g of a compound had an osmotic pressure of 12.2 mmhg at 298 k. the compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a nonelectrolyte. what is the molar mass of this compound?



Answer :

The compound's mole ratio in a laboratory setup is 3125.12 g/mol, according to the statement.

Water: an electrolyte or not?

Water that is completely free of ions is said to be pure. This could conduct electricity as a result. The inclusion of ions in the mixture allows the solution to carry an electric current when other substances, such as ionic compounds, are dissolved in water.

Briefing:

Osmotic pressure is given by;

π = C * R * T

∵ 760 mmHg = 1 atm

10.3 mmHg = 1 * 12.2/760 atm

= 0.016 atm

π = no. of moles * R * T/volume (L)

π = Weight (g) * R * T / Molar mass * V (L)

0.016 atm = 2.494 * 0.082 L atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ * 298 K/ M.W * 195 * 10⁻³

M.W = 3125.12 g/mol

Consequently, the compound's molar mass is 3125.12 g/mol.
