The osmotic pressure of a 0.10 M NaCl solution will be the same as that of a 0.10 M urea solution.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The osmotic pressure of a solution depends on the concentration of particles in the solution, as well as the size and nature of the particles. NaCl dissociates into two particles (Na+ and Cl-) in solution, while urea does not dissociate. Therefore, a 0.10 M NaCl solution will have a higher osmotic pressure (more particles per unit volume) than a 0.10 M urea solution.
