Which of the following colligative properties is the most sensitive to change in concentration?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Osmotic pressure is the most sensitive colligative property to changes in concentration because it is directly proportional to the concentration of the solute particles in the solution. As the concentration increases, so does the osmotic pressure. In contrast, vapor pressure, freezing point, and boiling point are all directly proportional to the molality (not the concentration) of the solution and are therefore less sensitive to changes in concentration.
