Expert Solution
Introduction

Osmotic pressure 

The pressure exerted by a solution on the sorrounding system. This pressure is directly proportional to concentration of the solution. As more is the concentration more is the pressure. The expression for osmotic pressure is 

Π = CRT 

Where 

Π = osmotic pressure (atm)

C = molarity of solution (moles/litre)

R = Universal gas constant = 8.314 J /Kmol

T = absolute temperature in Kelvin
