Question

An example of colligative property of a solution is -
A. Density
B. Mass
C. Elevation of boiling point
D. Temperature​

Answer 1

An example of colligative property of a solution is -

C. Elevation of boiling point

Elevation in boiling point, pressure, depression in vapour pressure, and depression in freezing point are colligative properties.

Answer 2

The one which is an example of colligative property from the given options is an elevation in boiling point (option C).

• The colligative property in solutions is defined by the fact that it only alters with changes in the solute to solvent ratio.
• When we add or increase the amount of solute in a solution, the boiling point rises.
• As the ratio of solute to solvent changes, the solvent concentration in the solution decreases, and the boiling point rises.
• The parameters of temperature, mass, and density are all affected by the chemical species present in the solution.
• As a result, raising the boiling point is the correct answer.
