colligative properties

Post by Derinda »

Is this a true statement about colligative properties? The change in temperature is proportional to the molality.

Hey
No Because molality DOES NOT depend on temperature But MOLARITY does. That is why in case of reaction where temperature change occurs, we use molality not molarity.
Hope that helps,
