Osmotic pressure may be used to determine the molecular weight of pure substances. It is an especially useful technique because low concentrations of solute produce
relatively large osmotic pressures. Although more sophisticated techniques are
now available to determine molecular weight, osmotic pressure is still used
occasionally because of its simplicity. Determine the molecular weight of
myoglobin (an oxygen storage protein that gives muscle its red color). The
osmotic pressure of a 1.0-mL water solution containing 1.5 x 10
~3 g of the protein
was measured at 2.06 x 10
~3 atm at 25°C.
A solute is dissolved in a solvent only if the solute-solvent interactions are stronger than the solute-solute and solvent-solvent interactions. A solute will not dissolve if the solute-solvent forces of attraction are weaker than individual solute and solvent intermolecular attractions.
Why is naphthalene, an organic substance, soluble in Kerosene, while NaCl (inorganic) is not? Why is NaCl soluble in H2O while naphthalene is not? Explain the answer in terms of the forces between the molecules that are present in the mentioned compounds.
