Insulin (C2H10O5)n is dissolved in a suitable and the osmotic pressure (π) of solutions of various concentration (g/cm3) C is measured at 20°C the slope of a plot of π against C is found to be 4.65 × 10raised to -3 the molecular wt of insulin is

Osmotic Pressure is given as:
O.P. = i*C*S*T => 1*C*0.0821*293
From y = mx
slope would be m = 1*0.0821*293.
But since the molecular wt. would be associated with the C concentration which is not the slope but the x axis it is not possible to exgtract the moles and hence the molecuar weight.
Hence the molaecular weight cannot be calculated directly here.
