Assertion:Molecular mass of KCl calculated on the basis of colligative properties will be lower than the normal molecular mass.
Reason : Experimentally determined molar mass of always lower than the true value .

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

KCl undergoes dissociation in solution , hence observed molar mass will be lower.Experimentally determined molar mass can be higher or lower depending upon whether solute undergoes dissociation or association.
