Question

Van't Hoff factor I is given by expression.

Options

• i = `"Normal molar mass"/"Abnormal molar mass"`

• i = `"Abnormal molar mass"/"Normal molar mass"`

• i = `"Observed colligative property"/"Calculated colligative property"`

• i = `"Calculated colligative property"/"Calculated colligative property"`

Answer 1

i = `"Calculated colligative property"/"Calculated colligative property"`

Explanation:

Van't Hoff factor (i) helps in predicting the nature of the solute in solution.

if i = 1, Solute behaves normally in solution.

i > 1, Solute dissociated in solution.

i < 1, Solute associates in solution.
