STANDARD Chemistry Colligative Properties MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

We have three aqueous solutions of NaCl labelled as 'A', 'B' and 'C' with concentrations 0.1 M, 0.01 M and 0.001 M, respectively. The value of van't Hoff factor for these solutions will be in the order

A

iₐ < i_b < i_c

B

iₐ > i_b > i_c

C

iₐ = i_b = i_c

D

iₐ < i_b > i_c

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

As NaCl is a strong electrolyte, it undergoes dissociation completely. Thus, van't Hoff factor will be same for all these solutions, iₐ = i_b = i_c.
