Question

At a given temperature osmotic pressure of a concentrated solution of a substance _______.

A

Is higher than that at a dilute solution.

B

Is lower than that of a dilute solution

C

Is same as that of a dilute solution

D

Cannot be compared with osmotic pressure of dilute

solution.

Answer

Is higher than that at a dilute solution.

Explanation

Solution

$\pi = CRT$

Greater the concentration of solution more will be its osmotic pressure. Thus, osmotic pressure of a concentrated solution of a substance is higher than that at a dilute solution.
