how osmotic pressure of a solution vary with temperature

Osmotic pressure is driven by the tendency of the solute molecules that are not glueing together to take up as much space as they can get. This is the same as for molecules in the gas phase, and described by the ideal gas law: pV=nRT. All else staying equal, this gives a direct proportional relationship between temperature and pressure.
The added pressure can be considered to be due to the higher speed of the molecules: at higher temperatures molecules move faster, giving both more energetic and more frequent bounces off the walls of a container.

Hey mate here's your answer
Osmotic pressure is calculated as:
π = CRT
where, π = Osmotic pressure
C = Concentration
R = Gas consatnt
T = Temperature.
It is evident from the equation that, osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the temperature.
Hope it helps you
