Vedclass · Answer

(B) The osmotic pressure is given by the formula $\pi = iCRT$,where $i$ is the van't Hoff factor,$C$ is the molarity,$R$ is the gas constant,and $T$ is the temperature.For $NaCl$ (strong electrolyte),$i = 2$,so $\pi_a = 2 	imes 2 	imes RT = 4RT$.For glucose (non-electrolyte),$i = 1$,so $\pi_b = 1 	imes 1 	imes RT = 1RT$.For urea (non-electrolyte),$i = 1$,so $\pi_c = 1 	imes 2 	imes RT = 2RT$.Comparing the values,the $1 \ M$ glucose solution has the minimum osmotic pressure.
