The osmotic pressure is one of the four colligative properties which depends on the number of particles of solute in the solution, irrespective of their nature. The osmotic pressure is equal to the product of concentration, gas constant and temperature. It is the most commonly used property for the determination of the molar mass of biomolecules. In many situations, the molecules get dissociated or associated when they are dissolved in a solvent, thereby changing the number of molecules in the solution. As a result, an abnormal molecular mass is obtained. The extent of dissociation or association is given by van't Hoff factor (i), which is the ratio of normal molar mass to abnormal molar mass. It is related with the degree of association or ionization. The introduction of van't Hoff factor in the osmotic pressure equation modifies the equation.

Biomolecules are the organic compounds present as an essential constituents of living organisms in different cells. molecules are generally termed as macromolecules, which are carbohydrates, enzymes, nucleic acids, amino acids and proteins The etc. Carbohydrates are classified as sugars and non-sugars include sucrose, glucose, fructose, starch and cellulose. Enzymes are coordinated with various chemical reactions in nucleic acid. Nucleic acids are found in living organisms made up of proteins and atural polymers. Two types that are generally found in biological systems are DNA and RNA nucleic acid. Amino acids bifunctional groups of carboxyl and amino groups. Proteins are a class of biologically important compounds. They are crucial are to virtually all processes in living systems. Some of them are hormones, which serve as chemical messengers that coordinate certain biochemical activities.
