Question

why are the colligative properties of colloids are low as compared to true solutions?

Open in App

Solution

In colloids, the molecules are aggregated due to which the number of particles in a given volume is less as compared to true solutions. Hence, the magnitude of colligative properties which depends on the number of particles in the solution is less for colloids as compared to true solutions.
