What is Van't Hoff factor ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Vant.s Hoff factor is the ratio of the experimentally determined value of colligative property to the normal value of that property. It is represented by i.
`i=("Observed colligative property")/("Normal colligative property")`
i = 1, solute behaves normally in solution.
`igt1`, solute undergoes dissociation in solution.
`ilt1`, solute undergoes association in solution.
