The following solutions are prepared by dissolving the requisite amount of solute in water to obtain the desired concentrations.
daser333 [38]

Answer:

C₆H₁₂O₆ < NaCl ≈ CH₃OH < MgCl₂

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for <em>osmotic pressure</em> (Π) is

Π = icRT

If T is constant,

Π = kic

<em>C₆H₁₂O₆: </em>

Π = k × 1 × 1 = k

<em>MgCl₂: </em>

Π = k × 3 × 1 = 3k

<em>CH₃OH: </em>

Π = k × 1 × 2 = 2k

<em>NaCl: </em>

Π = k  × 2 × 1 = 2k

The order of osmotic pressures is  

C₆H₁₂O₆ < NaCl ≈ CH₃OH < MgCl₂
