Question

what happens to the colligative properties when ethanoic acid is treated with benzene give reason

Answer 1

Explanation:

This increases the molar masd of the solution than expected value, when determined experi-mentally,using colligative properties methods.when acetic acid(ethanoic acid) is dissolved into benzene, molecules of acetic acid gets associated i.e.dimerize due to hydrogen bondings and number of particles reduced.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Molecules of ethanoic acid (acetic acid) dimerises in benzene due to hydrogen bonding. As a result of dimerisation the actual number of solute particles in solution is decreased. As colligative property decreases molecular mass increases
