Question 08
Colligative properties depend on ............. .
(a) the nature of the solute particles dissolved in solution
(b) the number of solute particles in solution
(c) the physical properties of the solute particles dissolved in solution
(d) the nature of solvent particles

Q. (A) Vapour pressure is a colligative property.
(R) Colligative property depends on the number of solute particles dissolved in the solution.

Q. Addition of a non-volatile solute to a solvent always increases the colligative property such as

π, \frac{Δ P}{P^{\circ}}, Δ T_{b}

and

Δ T_{f}

. All these colligative properties are directly proportional to the molality. The increase in colligative properties is due to increase in number of solute particles.
If relative decrease in vapour pressure is 0.4 for a solution containing 1 mole NaCl in 3 moles of

H_{2} O

, then what is the percentage ionization of NaCl?

Properties of solution which depend on only number of solute particles but not on nature of solute are called

STATEMENT 1: A solution has a solvent and a solute.

STATEMENT 2: The component of the solution that is dissolved in the solvent

(usually present in lesser quantity) is called solute.

STATEMENT 3: Particles of the solution can be seen with our naked eyes.

STATEMENT 4: Particles of the solution can be separated by the process of filtration.
