  • Q10

    Define the following terms:

    (i) Mole fraction

    (ii) Isotonic solutions

    (iii) van’t Hoff factor

    (iv) Ideal solution

    Marks:2
    Answer:

    (i) Mole fraction:- It is the ratio of number of moles of one component (solute or solvent) to the total number of moles (solutes and solvent) present in a solution.

    (ii) Isotonic solutions :- They are those solutions which have same osmotic pressure at same temperature.

    (iii) van’t Hoff factor :- It is defined as the ratio of observed value of colligative property to the calculated value of colligative property. It is used to find out the extent of association or dissociation.

     (iv) Ideal solution:­-The solutions which obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration is known as ideal solution.
