Hi again!!

Osmotic Pressure = M.R.T  (M = Molarity, R = 0.08206 L x atm/K x mol,
T = temp in K)

In this problem the molarity is 1.5 and the temperature in Kelvin
degrees is 295ēK (=273+22).

Osmotic Pressure = M.R.T = 1.5x(.08206)x(273+22) = 36.31 atm 
1 atm is equivalent to 101.325 kPa; then 
36.31 atm are equivalent to 36.31 x 101.325 kPa = 3679 kPa = 3.68 x
10^3 kPa.

The correct answer is c.
