Freezing point depression. When a solution is formed the molecules of the solute prevent the solution from freezing at its normal freezing point, it must be colder.
colligative properties, properties of a http://www.answers.com/topic/solution that depend on the number of solute particles present but not on the chemical properties of the solute. Colligative...
Purely physical: depends on the number of particles rather than on the kind of them. The number influences e.g. the boiling point elevation (decreased volatility), osmotic pressure (increased...
Colligative properties depend on the quantity of the solute, not the identity. This can be misleading however because quantity referes to the number of molecules which dissolve. If the solute is...
