What is colligative property?
b. depends only on the number of species added to a solution
c. results from increasing vapor pressure as a solute is added to a solvent
d. all of the above
Answer:
A colligative property isthe property of a solution that depends only on the amount of solute particles for every solvent molecule and not the nature of either of the two. therfore the answer is B.
The definition of a colligative property is any property that depends on amount.
I don't think its d because c does not make sense. Vapor pressure drops when you add solute to solvent and the wording on c is horrible. They don't just occur in aqueous solutions because you can use any volatile solvent with any nonvolatile solute. It doesn't have to be water.
b
Collagitive Properties are properties that change the vapor pressure, boiling, and freezing point of most solutions. Some collagitive properties are adding solute which decreases vapor pressure, boiling point elevation due to excessive solute, and freezing point depression due to additional solute. Again, they don't depend on the type of particles added, only the amount that can change a constant. :) Hope this helped.
