Why can osmometry be used to determine the molar mass of a solute when colligative properties are, by definition, independent of the identity of the solute.
Colligative properties are those properties of dilute solutions which depend only on the number of particles of the solute but independent of it's nature.
Osmotic pressure or osmometry is mainly used to find the molar mass of the solute.
For dilute solutions, osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the molarity (C) of the solution at a given temperature (T).
= C R T = (n/V) R T
where,
– osmotic pressure, C – molarity, R – gas constant, T –
temperature, V – a volume of solution in liters, n – the number of
moles of solute.
Also,n=(weight of solute in the solvent)/(molar mass of solute).= w/M
Thus,=
(w/MV) RT.
Rearranging the above equation, we get, M = (w/V)
RT. This gives us the molar mass of the solute.

Assignment Four Colligative properties refer to properties of the solvent that are affected by the presence/absence of solute particles. As such, they are dependent on the physical reaction of the solute and the solvent—there are no chemical reactions involved. All responses to the following questions should use language and terms that a high school senior that hasn't taken AP chemistry. 1) Why does the addition of solute decrease the melting point, and increase the boiling point of the solvent? 2)...

Drop at freezing point: A student performed the colligative properties experiment for which he measured 50.00mL of a solvent and weighed it giving a mass of 75.25g. I determined that the freezing point of the pure solvent was 1.00C. Then he added 0.30g of an unknown solid and determined that the freezing point of solution was -1.00C. The Kf of the pure solvent is 20.2C / m. Use the information presented above to answer the following questions: 1. What is...
What is the relationship between the moles of solute and the
mass of solute?
Rewrite the molality expression in terms of grams and molecular
weight.
Background:
Properties that depend on the concentration of particles in solution are called colligative properties. The number of particles in a solvent can affect the freezing or boiling point of solvent. To express the effect of concentration on freezing point or boiling point, molality is used in place of molarity. Molality (m) is the number...
