Colligative property is a term used in chemistry to describe the changes that occur in the properties of a solvent when a non-volatile solute is added to it. The most common colligative properties are osmotic pressure, boiling point elevation, depression of freezing point, and vapor pressure lowering. Alternate words for colligative property include solution properties, solvent properties, and concentration properties. Other related terms may include cryoscopic constant, ebullioscopic constant, molality, and molar mass. Understanding these synonyms for colligative property can help students and researchers better comprehend the complexities of solutions and the chemical behavior of solutes and solvents.
