Solution

The correct option is A osmotic pressure
In chemistry, colligative properties are properties of solutions that depend upon the ratio of the number of solute particles to the number of solvent molecules in a solution, and not on the type of chemical species present. The number ratio can be related to the various units for concentration of solutions. The independence of the nature of solute particles is exact for ideal solutions, and approximate for dilute real solutions.
Osmotic pressure is particularly useful in determination of molar mass of large molecules such as proteins and polymers.
Hence, correct answer is A
