The typical intravenous feeding solution used in hospitals consists of 5% (weight/volume) dextrose, C6H1206. Calculate the molarity of such a dextrose solution, and it's osmotic pressure at 37 degrees Celsius.

thank you for your help.

1 liter contains 50 g dextrose (5% w/v)
50 g dextrose = 0.278 moles
Solution is 0.278 M
Osmotic Pressure = M x R x T = 0.278 x 0.08206 x 310 = 7.1 atm
