Which statement regarding osmotic pressure is not correct? Osmotic pressure ________ A)increases with increasing temperature. B)increases with increasing molar concentration of solute. C)is greater for 0.1 M Na₂SO₄ than for 0.1 M NaCl. D)depends on the value of the gas constant R. E)is the same for solutions with the same mass percent of solute.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Osmotic pressure depends on the number of solute particles in solution, not on the mass percent of solute. Therefore, solutions with the same mass percent of solute can have different osmotic pressures if they contain solutes with different molar masses or if the solutes dissociate to different extents.
