Q8. Given : concentration of CaCl2 = 0.128 M
Osmotic pressure = i * C * R * T
where i = van't Hoff factor = number of particles or ions obtained after dissociation = 3 (for CaCl2)
C = concentration of CaCl2 = 0.128 M
R = constant = 0.0821 atm/M-K
T = absolute temperature = 35oC = (35 + 273) K = 308 K
Substituting the values,
Osmotic pressure = (3) * (0.128 M) * (0.0821 atm/M-K) * (308 K)
Osmotic pressure = 9.71 atm
Osmotic pressure = 9.71 atm * (14.7 psi)
Osmotic pressure = 143 psi
Correct option is : (a) 143 psi

11. ( 5 pts.) An engineer is using reverse osmosis (“RO”) to desalinate a tank of contaminated water that has a concentration of 0.269 M CaCl, (strong electrolyte) at 21.00°C to form deionized water. Given that 1 atm = 14.7 psi, the pressure he/she needed to apply across the "RO” membrane should be: (a) 422 psi (b) 286 psi (C) 179 psi (d) 206 psi
