Mainly which colligative property is used to determine molar mass of a polymer?

Correct answer: C. osmotic pressure

  • A. elevation in boiling point
  • B. depression in freezing point
  • C. osmotic pressure
  • D. relative lowering of vapour pressure

Explanation

For determining the molar mass of a polymer osmotic pressure is preferred because it is done at normal (room) temperature. At higher temperatures molecules are not stable.

About Solutions and Colloids

Solutions are described using molarity, molality, normality, mole fraction, percentage concentration and parts per million. Coverage also includes vapour-pressure lowering, boiling-point elevation, freezing-point depression and osmotic pressure, then distinguishes true solutions, colloids and suspensions by particle size, stability, light scattering and settling.
