QUESTION:

An aqueous solution of a 0.10 M monoprotic acid HA has an osmotic pressure of 3.22 atm at 25°C. What is the percent ionization of the acid at this concentration?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 4

We need to find  the percent ionization of the monoprotic acid HA under the given conditions.

The osmotic pressure  is the pressure required to stop osmosis, which is the selective passage of solvent molecules from a dilute solution to a more concentrated solution. The osmotic pressure is given by

where  is the molarity of the solution

 is the gas constant  

 is the absolute temperature.
