Human blood gives rise to an osmotic pressure of approximately 7.7 atm at body temperature, 35.9 Celsius.
What must the molarity of an intravenous glucose solution be to give rise to the same osmotic pressure as blood?
------------------------------
I use the equation ; P=MRT if that's right
R is constant= .0821
T= 308.9 Kelvin
P=7.7 atm
M= ?
So would i rearrange the equation to P/RT=M
I get the wrong answer tho, and the answer doesn't sound right. I know I'm doing something wrong.
