4.13.-The osmotic pressure measurement of a 0.

22 g/100cm^3 solution of poly

(vinyl chloride)in toluenen at 25 C in the apparatus shown in fig 4.3 indicated a
difference of 7.1mm in the heights of the solution and solvente levels (a) what is
the osmotic presure (atm) of the solution (b) if the second virial coeficiente for
poly (vinyl chloride) in toluene is T2 =200 cm3/g calculate Mn of the polymer .
(density of toluene at 25c =0.867 g/cm^{3.)

4.14.- A polysobutylene sample has Mn =400,000. The second virial coefficient of

the polymer in chlorobenzene solution at 25C is T2 =94.5cm^{3/g calculate the
osmotic pressure in g/cm^{2 of 0.30 g/dL solution of this polymer in chlorobenzene
at 25C compare this with the value calcukted for an ideal solution (chlorobenzene
density at 25C is 1.11 g/cm^3

4.15 A polystyrene simple was disolved in benzene to obtain solutions of different

known concentrations . measurement of osmotic head for these solutions at 30C
with a static equilibrium osmometer produced the following data:
Concentration , c (g dL-1) Osmotic head, h (cm C6 H6)
0.260 0.140
0.540 0.516
0.755 0.966
0.920 1.389
1.025 1.730
