What is the osmotic pressure of a 0.050 m solution of alcl3 in water that is at 0.00°c? consider alcl3 to be a strong electrolyte?

Osmotic pressure of the given solution is 4.48 atm.

Explanation: Osmotic pressure is defined as the number of moles of solute which are present in a solution.

Mathematically,

    ....(1)

where i = Van't Hoff factor

c = concentration of the solution

R = Universal gas constant =

T = temperature of the solution

Value of 'i' is 1 for non-electrolytes. But, here is an electrolyte, so the value of Van't Hoff factor will be the number of moles of particles of solute we get when 1 mole of solute is dissolved in a solution.

So, when 1 mole of dissociates in aqueous state to produce 1 mole of ion and 3 moles of ion.

For ,

i = 4

c = 0.050 mol/L

T = (273 + 0)K = 273 K

Putting the values in equation 1, we get

the awnser is group 12
