Question:

Which of the following statements is false?

Updated On: Jul 15, 2024
  • Two different solutions of sucrose of same molality prepared in different solvents will have the same depression in freezing point.
  • The osmotic pressure of a solution is given by the equation $\pi = CRT$ (where $C$ is the molarity of the solution).
  • Decreasing order of osmotic pressure for $0.01 \,M$ aqueous solutions of barium chloride, potassium chloride, acetic acid and sucrose is $BaCl_2 > KCl > CH_3COOH >$ sucrose.
  • According to Raoult?? law, the vapour pressure exerted by a volatile component of a solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction in the solution.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The value of \(K_f\) depends upon the nature of the solvent. Thus, two different solutions of sucrose of same molality prepared in different solvents will have the different depression in freezing point.

So, the correct option is (A).

Solutions

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.

For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.

Types of Solutions:

The solutions can be classified into three types:

  • Solid Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Solid-state.
  • Liquid Solutions- In these solutions, the solvent is in a Liquid state.
  • Gaseous Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Gaseous state.

On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:

  1. Unsaturated Solution- A solution in which more solute can be dissolved without raising the temperature of the solution is known as an unsaturated solution.
  2. Saturated Solution- A solution in which no solute can be dissolved after reaching a certain amount of temperature is known as an unsaturated saturated solution.
  3. Supersaturated Solution- A solution that contains more solute than the maximum amount at a certain temperature is known as a supersaturated solution.
