Answer:

CaCl₂ > CH₃OH = LiCl > C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

The osmotic pressure of a compound is calculated using the following expression:

π = MRT (1)

This expression is used when the substance is nonelectrolyte. If the solution is electrolyte solution then we need to count the van't hoff factor into the expression so:

π = MRTi  (2)

Now, we have 4 solutions here, only two of them are electrolyte solution, this means that these solutions can be dissociated into separate ions. These solutions are LiCl and CaCl₂. It can be shown in the following reactions:

LiCl -------> Li⁺ + Cl⁻     2 ions   (i = 2)

CaCl₂ ---------> Ca²⁺ + 2Cl⁻      3 ions (i = 3)

The methanol (CH₃OH) and glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) are non electrolyte solutions, therefore they are not dissociated. So, let's use expression (1) for methanol and glucose, and expression (2) for the salts:

CaCl₂:   π = 1 * 3 * RT = 3RT

CH₃OH:   π = 2 * RT = 2RT

C₆H₁₂O₆:  π = 1 * RT = 1RT

LiCl: π = 1 * 2 * RT = 2RT

Finally with these results we can conclude that the decreasing order of these solutions according to their osmotic pressures are:

<h2>CaCl₂ > CH₃OH = LiCl > C₆H₁₂O₆</h2>
