x%w/v solution of urea is isotonic with 4%w/v solution of a non-volatile solute of molar mass 120 g mol-1. The value of x is
  1. 2
  2. 4
  3. 3
  4. 5

Solution

Two solutions having same osmotic pressure at a given temperature are called isotonic solutions. When such solutions are separated.

π=CRT

π=Osmotic pressure

C=Concentration in molarity

R=Universal gas constant

T=Temperature

As the solutions are isotonic

πurea=πXCurea=CX

X % solution of urea means X grams of urea in 100 mL of the solution.

4% non-volatile solute contains 4 grams of solute in 100mL of the solution

WureaMurea×1000Vurea=WM×1000VX60×1000100urea=4120×1000100X=2g

Hence, the value of X is 2g
