Answer:
The answer to your question is π = 12.47 atm
Explanation:
Data
mass of Magnesium citrate = 25.5 g
volume of solution = 244 ml
temperature = 37°C
molar mass C₆H₆MgO₇ = (12 x 6) + (1 x 6) + (24 x 1) + (16 x 7) = 214 g
Osmotic pressure = π = ?
Process
1.- Calculate the moles of magnesium citrate
214 grams ----------------- 1 mol
25.5 grams --------------- x
x = (25.5 x 1)/214
x = 0.119
2.- Calculate molarity
Molarity = moles/volume
Molarity = 0.119/0.244
Molarity = 0.49
3.- Calculate osmotic pressure
π = MRT
π = (0.49)(0.0821)(37 + 273)
π = (0.49)(0.0821)(310)
π = 12.47 atm
