Chapter 14, Problem 59E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molar mass of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) needs to determined.

Concept introduction:

The relation between osmotic pressure and concentration is as follows:

$\text{π}=CRT$ ..... (1)

Where, $\text{π}$ is osmotic pressure, C is concentration, R is Gas constant and T is temperature.

Formula of molarity is,

$\text{Molarity=}\frac{\text{Moles}\text{of}\text{solute}}{\text{Volume}\text{in}\text{Litre}}$

Formula of mole number is,

$\text{Number}\text{of moles}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Molar}\text{Mass}}$
