    The colligative property is not represented by:

    A)  elevation in boiling point

    B)  osmotic pressure

    C)  optical activity

    D)  relative lowering of vapour pressure

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Colligative properties are defined as properties of dilute solutions of non-volatile solutes whose values depend upon ±e concentration of solute particles in the solution but not on the indivisual identity of the solute. Various colligative properties are: (i) Relative lowering in vapour pressure (ii) Elevation in boiling point (iii) Depression in freezing point (iv) Osmotic pressure So, optical activity is not a colligative property.
