Question:

Match List-I with List-II \[ \begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \textbf{Solutions} & \textbf{Explanation} \\ \hline (A) \; \text{Saturated solution} & (I) \; \text{Solution having two components.} \\ \hline (B) \; \text{Isotonic solutions} & (II) \; \text{A solution whose osmotic pressure is more than that of another.} \\ \hline (C) \; \text{Binary solution} & (III) \; \text{A solution which contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature.} \\ \hline (D) \; \text{Hypertonic solution} & (IV) \; \text{The solutions having the same osmotic pressure at a given temperature.} \\ \hline \end{array} \]

Show Hint

Understanding the properties of solutions (such as osmotic pressure, concentration, and composition) helps in matching different types of solutions correctly.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To solve this matching question, we need to align the types of solutions with their respective explanations. Let's analyze each item:

  1. Saturated solution: This is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature. Therefore, it matches with \((III)\)
  2. Isotonic solutions: These are solutions that have the same osmotic pressure at a given temperature. Hence, it corresponds to \((IV)\).
  3. Binary solution: A solution having two components is known as a binary solution. Thus, it matches with \((I)\).
  4. Hypertonic solution: This refers to a solution whose osmotic pressure is more than that of another solution. Therefore, it fits with \((II)\).

Based on the analysis above, we can determine the correct matching:

SolutionExplanation
(A) Saturated solution(III)
(B) Isotonic solutions(IV)
(C) Binary solution(I)
(D) Hypertonic solution(II)

Therefore, the correct answer is: 
(A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)
