Q. An aqueous solution of sucrose containing $34.2 g / \ell$ has an osmotic pressure of $2.38$ atmosphere at $17^{\circ} C$ for an aqueous solution of glucose, $C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}$ to be isotonic with this solution, it would have

Solution:

$\pi=C R T$
$\pi$ (sucrose) $=\pi$ (glucose)
$C$ (sucrose) $RT = C$ (glucose) $RT$
No. of moles of glucose $=$ No. of moles sucrose
Is $18.0 g$ of glucose
