Solution
The correct options are A Elevation of boiling point B Depression of freezing point C Relative lowering of vapour pressure D Osmotic pressure The properties of the solution which depend only on the number of solute particles but not on the nature of the solute are called colligative properties of the solution. All the above-mentioned properties belong to colligative properties. They all depend on the number of solute particles.
