Chapter 12, Problem 12.117QP

You have an aqueous, dilute solution of a nonvolatile nonelectrolyte. Assuming that the solution is ideal, choose the following statement(s) that are true.

1. a If the concentration of the solute is increased, then the osmotic pressure of the solution will increase.
2. b The addition of more solute will cause an increase in the boiling point of the solution.
3. c The vapor pressure of this solution would decrease if some of the water were allowed to evaporate.
4. d The solution will freeze at a temperature below 0°C at 1.0 atm.
5. e The addition of pure water to the solution will cause the boiling point to decrease.
