JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 -1. Solution and colligative properties

\(20\text{ g}\) hemoglobin in a \(1\text{ L}\) aqueous solution (A) at \(300\text{ K}\) is separated from pure water by semi permeable membrane. At equilibrium the height of solution in a tube dipped in a solution (A) is found to be \(80.0\text{ mm}\) higher than the tube dipped in water. The molar mass of hemoglobin is _______ \(\text{kg mol}^{-1}\). (Nearest integer)
(Given : \(g = 10\text{ m s}^{-2}\), \(R = 8.3\text{ kPa dm}^3\text{ K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1}\), density of solution \(= 1000\text{ kg m}^{-3}\))

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 62

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The osmotic pressure \(\pi\) of the solution is balanced by the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid column. \(\pi = \rho g h\) Given: Density of solution, \(\rho = 1000 \text{ kg m}^{-3}\) Acceleration due to gravity, \(g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}\) Height difference,…
