Properties such as boiling point,freezing point,and vapour pressure of a pure solvent change when solute molecules are added to get a homogeneous solution. These are called colligative properties. Applications of colligative properties are very useful in day-to-day life. One of its examples is the use of an ethylene glycol and water mixture as an anti-freezing liquid in the radiator of automobiles.

Pick the correct statement.

Which of the following is $CORRECT$ with respect to the property mentioned against it?

At $80\,^oC$,the vapour pressure of pure liquid $A$ is $520\, mm\,Hg$ and that of pure liquid $B$ is $1000\, mm\,Hg$. If a mixture of $A$ and $B$ boils at $80\,^oC$ and $1\, atm$ pressure,the amount of $A$ in the mixture is ........... $mol\,\%$.

Drinking water contains some salt impurities dissolved in it. When this solution is heated in an open container,vapours are formed and separated slowly. In this process,the freezing point and osmotic pressure of the remaining solution will continuously
