Question

The colligative properties of a solution may depend on

Answer: A,C

💡 Solution & Explanation

Colligative properties depend primarily on the number of solute particles. However, they also depend on the nature of the solvent (which dictates the cryoscopic and ebullioscopic constants, $K_f$ and $K_b$) and on the temperature (which explicitly appears in the osmotic pressure equation, $\pi = CRT$). They do not depend on the chemical nature of the solute or the total macroscopic amount of the solution. Therefore, correct answer is A,C.
