<u>Answer:</u> The pressure that must be applied to the apparatus is 0.239 atm
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the osmotic pressure, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:
or,
where,
= osmotic pressure of the solution
i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)
= mass of sucrose = 3.40 g
= molar mass of sucrose = 342.3 g/mol
= Volume of solution = 1 L
R = Gas constant =
T = temperature of the solution =
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the pressure that must be applied to the apparatus is 0.239 atm
