Which of the following is a colligative property?

ASurface tension
BOsmotic pressure
Correct Answer
COptical rotation
DViscosity

Solution

$$\text{Colligative properties- The properties that depend upon the ratio of the number of solute}$$\text{ molecules and total molecules not upon the nature of solute molecules named as colligative properties.}$$
Example- $$Osmotic \ pressure,$$ elevation of boiling point, depression in freezing point and relative lowering of vapour pressure.

Hence, option B is correct.
