Osmotic Pressure.. If the height of the column is 6 cm what is the osmotic pressure of the sugar solution in g/cm2 Assume the density of the solution is 1.01 g/ml.. Beaker of water with beaker of sugar solutution with semi permeable membrane

Wouldn't the osmotic pressure equal the weight of the column of sugar solution/area?

6cm*density*g=osmotic pressure.

Now watch units. I would shift to SI units, meters, density in kg/m^3, and g in 9.8N/kg

To determine the osmotic pressure of the sugar solution in g/cm², we need to use the formula:

Osmotic pressure (π) = (Density of solution × g) / (Height of the column in cm)

Given:
Height of the column = 6 cm
Density of the solution = 1.01 g/ml

Step 1: Convert density to g/cm³
Since the density is given as 1.01 g/ml, we need to convert it to g/cm³ by multiplying it by 1 ml/1 cm³:
Density of solution = 1.01 g/ml × 1 ml/1 cm³ = 1.01 g/cm³

Step 2: Plug the values into the formula
π = (1.01 g/cm³ × g) / (6 cm)

Step 3: Simplify the equation
To calculate the osmotic pressure, you need to know the value of 'g'. Unfortunately, that information is missing in the given question. If you provide the value of 'g', I will be able to help you calculate the osmotic pressure.
