Solution

The correct option is D A solution containing a non-volatile solute has a lower boiling point than pure solvent
A solution containing a non-volatile solute has a lower vapour pressure than pure solvent, as in the surface of the solution some non volatile solute particles will also be present along with the solvent molecules.
A solution containing a non-volatile solute will have a higher boiling point compared to the pure solvent.
A solution containing a non-volatile solute has a lower freezing point than pure solvent, which is called depression in freezing point.
