Question

The Van't Hoff factor of acetic acid solution is _______ than one and the value of normal colligative property is ________ than the observed colligative property of this solution.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Van't Hoff factor of acetic acid solution is more than one and the value of normal colligative property is less than the observed colligative property of this solution. Acetic acid dissociates into acetate ions and hydrogen ions.
