this is basically a definition, read your text

anonymous · Answer

So would it be F?

aaronq · Answer

nope, read your book please

anonymous · Answer

the book said "A colligative property is a property of solutions that depends of only upon the number of solute particles, not upon their identity. Three important colligative properties of solutions are vapor-pressure lowering, freezing-point depression, and boiling-point elevation.

anonymous · Answer

There is no C and D choice, and C was partially correct.

anonymous · Answer

Actually, the correct answer is F. I just looked at the answers.

aaronq · Answer

the correct answer should be the number of solute particles of the solution (C), not on the nature of them.
