Which property is classified as colligative?
- (A) solubility of a solute
- (B) osmotic pressure
- (C) hydrogen ion (H ) concentration
- (D) dissociation of a solute
- (E) miscibility of the liquids
Click below for Answer and Explanation:
Answer
(B) Osmotic pressure
Exlanation:
- Colligative properties depend on the number of solute particles, not their type.
- Examples include:
- Osmotic pressure
- Boiling point elevation
- Freezing point depression
- Vapor pressure lowering
So, osmotic pressure is a classic colligative property—option B is correct!
