Question

Which of the following properties do not depend on the nature of solute particles?

• A. Relative lowering of vapour pressure
• B. Elevation of boiling point.
• C. Depression of freezing point
• D. All of the above.

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above.

Colligative properties of solutions are properties that depend upon the concentration of solute molecules or ions, but not upon the identity of the solute.
Colligative properties include:

1. Relative lowering of vapour pressure.
2. Elevation of boiling point.
3. Depression of freezing point
4. Osmotic pressure.
