10 Questions
What is the main characteristic of colligative properties of solutions?
They depend only on the amount and nature of the solvent
According to Raoult's Law, what is the relationship between the partial vapor pressure of a solvent above a solution and the vapor pressure of the pure solvent?
Psolution = Xsolvent P0
What is the effect of adding non-volatile solute particles to a solvent on the vapor pressure?
It decreases the vapor pressure
What is the boiling point elevation (ΔTb) directly proportional to?
The molal concentration of the solute
What is the relationship between the freezing point depression (ΔTf) and the molal concentration of the solute?
ΔTf is directly proportional to the molal concentration
What is the main difference between non-electrolyte, strong electrolyte, and weak electrolyte solutions?
The nature of the solute particles
What is osmosis?
The transport of solvent molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration
What is the relationship between osmotic pressure and the ideal gas law?
There is no relationship between osmotic pressure and the ideal gas law
What is an example of a colligative property?
Vapor pressure lowering
Why do solute particles interfere with the escaping tendency of solvent molecules?
Because solute particles are non-volatile
