Question

When a substance is dissolved in water, the properties of the solution will be different from those of the waterWhich statement correctly describes a change that occurs with the addition of solute?A. It will be more difficult for the pure water to freeze than for the solution.OB. The osmotic pressure will be greater for the solution than for the pure water.OC. The solution will boil with the addition of less heat than for the pure water.D.The vapor pressure above the solution will be greater than above the pure water.

Answer 1

Answer

B. The osmotic pressure will be greater for the solution than for the pure water.

Explanation

Osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the number of solute particles in a given amount of solvent. The more number of solute particles in a solution, the more would be its osmotic pressure.
