Concept explainers
Lysozyme is an enzyme that cleaves bacterial cell walls. A sample of lysozyme extracted from egg white has a molar mass of 13,930 g. A quantity of 0.100 g of this enzyme is dissolved in 150 g of water at

Interpretation:
The vapor pressure lowering, depression in freezing point, elevation in boiling point, and atmospheric pressure of the solution are to be calculated with given molar mass of enzyme.
Concept Introduction:
The property that depends on the concentration of solute molecules and not on the identity of solute is termed as colligative property.
The four colligative properties of solution are vapor-pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure.
Vapor pressure lowering is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solute.
The pressure exerted by a solvent is equal to the product of that solvent’s mole fraction and the pressure exerted by the pure solvent. It is expressed as
Here,
Freezing point depression occurs when a nonvolatile solute is added to a solvent.
Freezing point depression is calculated by using the expression given below:
Here,
Elevation in boiling point occurs when a nonvolatile solute is added to a pure solvent.
Boiling point elevation is calculated by using the expression given below:
Here,
Osmotic pressure is the pressure that has to be applied to prevent the pure solvent to pass to a solution by osmosis.
The osmotic pressure is calculated by using the expression given below:
Here,
The number of moles is calculated by dividing the given mass of the compound by the molar mass. It is expressed as
Here,
The mole fraction of compound can be calculated as
