Q6 of 31 Page 1

(i) Write the colligative property which is used to find the molecular mass of macromolecules.

(ii) In non-ideal solution, what type of deviation shows the formation of minimum boiling azeotropes?

(i) The colligative property which is used to find the molecular mass of macromolecules is osmotic pressure.


π = cRT


where π = osmotic pressure


c = concentration


R = gas constant


T = Temperature


By the above formula, we can calculate the molecular mass of macromolecules.


(ii) In non-ideal solution, positive deviation shows the formation of minimum boiling azeotropes.


Note: The type of liquid mixture, having a definite composition, and boiling like a pure liquid, is called an azeotropic mixture
