Relative lowering of vapor pressure is a colligative property because:

(a) It depends on the concentration of a non-electrolyte solute in a solution and does not depend on the nature of the solute molecules
(b) It depends on the number of particles of electrolyte solute in a solution and does not depend on the nature of the solute particles
(c) It depends on the concentration of a non-electrolyte solute in solution as well as on the nature of the solute molecules
(d) It depends on the concentration of an electrolyte or non-electrolyte solute in solution as well as on the nature of solute molecules


The correct choice among the given is:

1. (a, b)

2. (b, c)

3. (c, d)

4. (a, d)
