Solution

The correct option is D more
1 molal solution of NaCl has more osmotic pressure than 1 molal solution of urea. Osmotic pressure is a colligative property and depends upon the number of particles. NaCl undergoes ionization whereas urea does not. Hence, number of particles is greater in case of NaCl than in urea.
