Question:

a. Calculate the freezing-point depression and osmotic pressure at 25οC of an aqueous solution containing 1.0 g/L of a protein (molar mass = 9.0 × 104 g/mol) if the density of the solution is 1.0 g/cm3 .

b. Considering your answer to part a, which colligative property, freezing-point depression or osmotic pressure, would be better used to determine the molar masses of large molecules? Explain.
