Why is Osmotic pressure considered as a Colligative Property?

Explanation:
Osmotic pressure is a colligative property
(meaning: its magnitude independent of the kind of solute molecule) for the same reason the ideal gas law is independent of the gas molecule's identity.
Both are due to the equipartition of energy.

Osmosis can be made to do work. Osmotic pressure is a colligative property, meaning that the osmotic pressure depends on the molar concentration of the solute but not on its identity. Osmosis is a vital process in biological systems, as biological membranes are semipermeable.
