Chapter 7, Problem 7.77E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The osmotic pressure of a solution that has $0.122\text{M}$ concentration in solute and a boiling point $0.19°\text{C}$ above that of pure water at $25.0°\text{C}$ in terms of $\text{torr,}\text{mmHg}$, and $\text{atm}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Solutes which give conducting solutions on dissolution are called electrolytes. Those which dissociate completely in the solution are known as strong electrolytes. Solutes which do not give conducting solutions are called nonelectrolytes. The properties which depend on the number of solute particles are known as colligative properties. Some of these properties are boiling point, freezing point and osmotic pressure.
