Solution
The properties of solutions which depend upon the number of solute particles (molecules or ions) present in a definite amount of solvent, but not on the chemical nature of the solute, are called colligative properties.
The important colligative properties of solutions are as follows:
- Relative lowering of vapour pressure
- The elevation of boiling point
- The depression of freezing point
- Osmotic pressure
