What are the properties arising due to varying concentrations of solute in a given solvent, irrespective of the nature of solute with respect to the solvent?(a) Colligative properties(b) Intensive properties(c) Extensive properties(d) Solute propertiesThis question was addressed to me in a national level competition.My question is based upon Colligative Properties and Determination of Molar Mass in portion Solutions of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

Correct CHOICE is (a) Colligative PROPERTIES

Easy EXPLANATION: Colligative properties are set of four properties. This set of properties purely depends on the number of solute particles present in the solution/solvent, independent of the NATURE of the particles with respect to the solution/solvent. The properties are 1.) Relative lowering of vapor pressure, 2.) Elevation in boiling point, 3.) DEPRESSION in freezing point and 4.) Osmotic pressure.
