Question

What is the van't Hoff factor of $1\mathrm{M}$ ideal solution?

Answer 1

Van't Hoff factor:

• "The ratio of the concentration of particles created during the dissolution of a substance to the mass concentration of the substance is known as the Van't Hoff factor$\left(\mathrm{i}\right)$."

Van't Hoff factor of $1\mathrm{M}$ ideal solution:

• The optimal Solutions are those which obey Raoult’s Law at all concentrations and temperatures.
• The number of particles created in a solution from one unit of solute is known as the van't Hoff factor.
• For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van‘t Hoff factor is practically $1$.
• The solute does not associate or dissociate because it is an ideal solution, and $\mathrm{i}=1.0$.
