Question

Consider two aqueous nonvolatile and nonelectrolyte solutions, each with a solute concentration of 1 M. One contains glucose, while the other contains an unidentified covalent solid. Which of the following are sure to be identical in each solution? Select all that apply: a. Their freezing points b. The identity of the solvent c. The identity of the solute d. Their densities

Answer 1

Answer:

a and b are correct

Explanation:

This because both are aqueous solutions,therefore, identity of solvent is same that is water.

And because both solutions are non electrolyte they would not ionize in solution, and for the same concentration, the freezing point of both solution would also be  same. Since depression in freezing point is a colligative property this means that it depends on number of solute particles not nature of particles .

Hence answer is that  their freezing points and  Identity of the solvent shall remain the same.
