calculate the osmotic pressure of 0.05%urea solution in water at 20°c.
given:- R=0.0821Latm per mole per Kelvin;Molar mass of urea = 20g per mole

o.p=CRT
no of moles of urea=0.05/60 (molecular weight of urea=60)
                             =8 x 10-4
C=8 x 10-4/20 x 10-3 ; T=273+20=293K
osmotic pressure = 0.04 x 0.0821 x 293
                           =0.962 atm

π = (Wx RT) / (M2 x V)
W2 = 0.05 g
R = 0.0821
T = 20 °C = 20 + 273 = 293 K
M2 = 60 M
V = 100 mL = 0.1 L
i = 1
π = (0.05 x 0.0821 x 293) / (60 x 0.1)
   = 1.202765 / 6 
   = 0.2 atm
