उत्तर
Osmotic pressure is considered a colligative property because it depends only on the number of solute particles (i.e., the concentration of the solute) and not on their nature.
Osmotic pressure (π) = CRT
Where:
π = osmotic pressure
C = molar concentration of solute
R = gas constant
T = temperature (in Kelvin)
This shows that osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the number of solute particles in a given volume of solution.
