Question

Define colligative properties?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi mate

Explanation:

In chemistry, colligative properties are those properties of solutions that depend on the ratio of the number of solute particles to the number of solvent molecules in a solution, and not on the nature of the chemical species present. ... The word colligative is derived from the Latin colligatus meaning bound together.

Answer 2

the physical properties of solutions that depend on the number of solute particles in solutions and not on their nature are called colligative properties.

Example of colligative properties:

1. vapour pressure lowering
2. boiling point elevation
3. freezing point depression
4. osmotic pressure.
