The osmotic pressure of human blood is 7.6 atm at 37 °C. What mass of glucose, C6H12O6, is required to make 1.00 L of aqueous solution for intravenous feeding if the solution must have the same osmotic pressure as blood at body temperature, 37 °C?

6 atm), R is the gas constant (0.0821 L.atm/mol.K), T is the temperature in Kelvin (310 K), and C is the molarity of the solution. \[C = \frac{pi}{RT} = \frac{7.6}{0.0821 \times 310} = 0.3 M\] Show more…

61. The osmotic pressure of human blood is 7.6 atm at 37 °C. What mass of glucose, C6H12O6, is required to make 1.00 L of aqueous solution for intravenous feeding if the solution must have the same osmotic pressure as blood at body temperature, 37 °C (assuming ideal solution behavior)?
