    The order of osmotic pressures of equimolar solutions of \[BaC{{l}_{2}},\]\[~NaCl\] and glucose will be

    A)  \[BaC{{l}_{2}}>NaCl>glucose\]

    B)  \[NaCl>BaC{{l}_{2}}>glucose\]

    C)  \[glucose>BaC{{l}_{2}}>NaCl\]

    D)  \[glucose>NaCl>BaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Glucose is an organic compound and this is not ionised while \[BaC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[NaCl\] are inorganic compounds and they are strong electrolytes and are normally 100% ionised at normal dilution.                 \[BaC{{l}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons B{{a}^{2+}}+2C{{l}^{-}}\]                 \[NaCl\rightleftharpoons N{{a}^{+}}+C{{l}^{-}}\] \[\because \]Osmotic pressure is a colligative property and hence, depends on the number of ions. So, decreasing order of osmotic pressure is\[BaC{{l}_{2}}>NaCl>\]glucose
