An aqueous solution of a soluble compound (a nonelectrolyte) is prepared by dissolving 33.2 g of the compound in sufficient water to form 250 mL of solution. The solution has an osmotic pressure of 1.2 atm at 25 ºC. What is the molar mass (g/mol) of the compound?

2710.2g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

van 't Hoff factor (i) = 1 (since the compound is non-electrolyte)

Mass of compound = 33.2g

Volume = 250mL

Osmotic pressure (Π) = 1.2 atm

Temperature (T) = 25ºC = 25ºC + 273 = 298K

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Molar mass of compound =.?

Step 2:

Determination of the molarity of the compound.

The molarity, M of the compound can be obtained as follow:

Π = iMRT

1.2 = 1 x M x 0.0821 x 298

Divide both side by 0.0821 x 298

M = 1.2 / (0.0821 x 298)

M = 0.049mol/L

Step 3:

Determination of the number of mole of compound in the solution. This can be obtain as follow:

Molarity = 0.049mol/L

Volume = 250mL = 250/1000 = 0.25L

Mole of compound =..?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.049 = mole / 0.25

Cross multiply

Mole = 0.049 x 0.25

Mole of compound = 0.01225 mole.

Step 4:

Determination of the molar mass of the compound. This is illustrated below:

Mole of the compound = 0.01225 mole.

Mass of the compound = 33.2g

Molar mass of the compound =.?

Mole = Mass /Molar Mass

0.01225 = 33.2/Molar Mass

Cross multiply

0.01225 x molar mass = 33.2

Divide both side by 0.01225

Molar mass = 33.2/0.01225

Molar mass of the compound = 2710.2g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of the compound is 2710.2g/mol

the correct option is c.

isotopes refers to different forms of the same element with the same atomic number but different mass number as a result of difference in their neutron numbers. isotopes have different relative atomic mass but share the same chemical properties.

the answer is yes

it has kinetic energy

reason

an object has kinetic energy when you stop the force carrying it, the object will stay in motion.
