6-22 Answer true or false.
(a) Water is a good solvent for ionic compounds because water is a polar liquid.
(b) Small covalent compounds dissolve in water if they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
(c) The solubility of ionic compounds in water generally increases as temperature increases.
(d) The solubility of gases in liquids generally increases as temperature increases.
(e) Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids in liquids.
(f) Pressure has a major effect on the solubility of gases in liquids.
(g) In general, the greater the pressure of a gas over water, the greater the solubility of the gas in water.
(h) Oxygen, O2, is insoluble in water.

- 6-111 As noted in Section 6-8C, the amount of external pressure that must be applied to a more concentrated solution to stop the passage of solvent molecules across a semipermeable membrane is known as the osmotic pressure The osmotic pressure obeys a law similar in form to the ideal gas law (discussed in Section 5-4), where Substituting for pressure and solving for osmotic pressures gives the following equation: RT MRT, where M is the concentration or molarity of the solution. (a) Determine the osmotic pressure at 25°C of a 0.0020 M sucrose (C12H22O11) solution. (b) Seawater contains 3.4 g of salts for every liter of solution. Assuming the solute consists entirely of NaCl (and complete dissociation of the NaCI salt), calculate the osmotic pressure of seawater at 25°C. (c) The average osmotic pressure of blood is 7.7 atm at 25°C. What concentration of glucose (C6H12O6) will be isotonic with blood? (d) Lysozyme is an enzyme that breaks bacterial cell walls. A solution containing 0.150 g of this enzyme in 210. mL of solution has an osmotic pressure of 0.953 torr at 25°C. What is the molar mass of lysozyme? (e) The osmotic pressure of an aqueous solution of a certain protein was measured in order to determine the protein's molar mass. The solution contained 3.50 mg of protein dissolved in sufficient water to form 5.00 mL of solution. The osmotic pressure of the solution at 25°C was found to be 1.54 torr. Calculate the molar mass of the protein.arrow_forward6-113 List the following aqueous solutions in order of decreasing freezing point: 0.040 M glycerin (C3H8O3) 0.025 M NaBr, and 0.015 M AI(NO3)3 Assume complete dissociation of any salts.arrow_forwardWill red blood cells crenate, hemolyze, or remain unaffected when placed in each of the solutions in Problem 8-107?arrow_forward
