    The vapour pressure will be lowest for:

    A) \[0.1\,\,M\]sugar solution

    B)        \[0.1\,\,M\,\,KCl\] solution

    C)        \[0.1\,\,M\,\,Cu{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}\] solution

    D)        \[0.1\,\,M\,\,AgN{{O}_{3}}\]solution

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Vapour pressure of a solvent is lowered by the presence of solute in it. Lowering in vapour pressure is a colligative properly\[i.e.\], it depends on the no. of particles present in the solution. \[Cu{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}\] give the maximum no. of ions\[(i.e.,\,\,\,3)\] so it causes the greatest lowering in vapour pressure of water.
