For dilute solutions, lowering of vapor pressure of solvent ΔP / P°_A =
- Volume change
- x_solute (mole fraction of solute) — colligative
- Mass of solute
- Always 1
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: B. x_solute (mole fraction of solute) — colligative
ΔP / P°_A = x_B (solute mole fraction) by Raoult's law.
**Colligative:** depends only on number of solute particles, not their nature.
