Consider two isotonic solutions at same temperatures. The solute in the solution A has the molecular mass M and the solute in the solution B has the molecular mass 2M. If the volume of both the solution is same; then, which of the following statements is correct?

Options
  • The number of the moles of solutes in A and B are same.

  • The mass of the solute in A and B is same.

  • The number of the moles in solution A is double the number of the moles in solution B.

  • The number of the moles in solution B is double the number of the moles in solution A.

To make isotonic No of mole of solute should be same in both solutions i.e
nA = nB
n = weigth of solute / molar mass of solute
Solution A has the molecular mass M for solute.
Solution B has the molecular mass 2M for solute.

WA/M = WB/2M
2WA/M=WB/M

OR
2nA= nB

Correct Answer : D
The number of the moles in solution B is double the number of the moles in solution A.
