Osmotic pressure of insulin solution at 298K is found to be `0.0072` atm. Hence height of water column due to this osmotic pressure is (density of `Hg = 13.6 g cm^(-3))`A. `0.76mm`B. `70.28mm`C. `74.42mm`D. `760mm`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Pressure = hdg
`P = hdg` (for Hg)
1 atm = 76 mm of Hg
`:. 0.0072` atm `-= 0.0072 xx 760mm` of Hg
`P = 0.0072 xx 760 xx 13.6 xx 9.8` (for Hg)
`P = h xx 1 xx 9.8` (for water) (density of water `= 1g//cm^(3))`
`:. 9.8 xx h = 0.0072 xx 60 xx 13.6 xx 9.8`
`h = 0.0072 xx 760 xx 13.6mm`
`= 74.42 mm`
