Solution

The correct option is A Acetic acid
Glucose, sugar and fructose are non- electrolytes, acetic acid is weak elecrolyte and hence dissociates in hydrogen and acetate ions.
Colligative property depends on number of particles present in the solution.
van't Hoff factor is ratio of observed colligative property to theoretical colligative property. Therefore, van't Hoff factor of acetic acid is greater than 1. Optiob D is correct.
