Determine whether each of the examples represents a colligative property or a non-colligative property. boiling point elevation Choose... color Choose... freezing point depression Choose... vapor pressure lowering Choose... density Choose...

boiling point elevation - colligative property

color - non-colligative property

freezing point depression - colligative property

vapor pressure lowering - colligative property

density - non-colligative property

Explanation:

A colligative property is a property that depends on the number of particles present in the system.

Freezing point depression, boiling point elevation and vapour pressure lowering are all colligative properties of solutions.

Colour and density do not depend on the number of particles present hence they are not colligative properties.

"you start with 15.67 g mgco3-xh2o, when heated and all the water is removed, you are left with 7.58 g mgco3 only.

therefore, you had 15.67 - 7.58 = 8.09g h2o  

moles of each :

7.58g mgco3 = ? moles = 7.58g / 83.4g/mole = 0.09moles  

8 09g h2o = ? moles = 8.09g / 18g/mole = 0.44moles  

molar ratio between the two by dividing both numbers by the smallest number :

0.09 / 0.09 = 1  

0.44 / 0.09 = 4.8
