What is the osmotic pressure of a solution containing 541 mg of aspartame (C₁₄H₁₈N₂O₅)in a total volume of 60.0 mL of water at 25°C? A) 0.749 atm B) 1.14 atm C) 2.35 atm D) 0.0624 atm

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The osmotic pressure (π) can be calculated using the formula π = (n/V)RT, where n is the number of moles, V is the volume in liters, R is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 L·atm/mol·K), and T is the temperature in Kelvin. First, convert 541 mg of aspartame to moles (molar mass = 294.3 g/mol), then use the formula to find the osmotic pressure.
