The colligative properties of a solution depend on :

AThe number of solute particles present in it
Correct Answer
BThe chemical nature of the solute particles present in it
CThe nature of the solvent used
DNone

Solution

Colligative properties : Those physical properties of a solution which depend upon the number of particles in a given volume of the solution or the mole fraction of the solute are called colligative properties.

The following four properties are colligative properties :
(i)Lowering of vapour pressure of the solvent.

(ii)Elevation in boiling point of the solvent.

(iii)Depression in freezing point of solvent.

(iv)Osmotic pressure.
