Solution formula and notes for jee and neet
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances on a molecular level. The constituent of the mixture present in a smaller amount is called the solute and the one present in a larger amount is called the solvent. Concentration of Solution Osmotic Pressure Osmotic Pressure is the best colligative property to determine the molecular weight of non-volatile substances. Types of Solutions Fluids in the body generally aren’t found in pure forms. They are usually found in three types of solutions: isotonic, hypotonic and hypertonic. Isotonic solutions – An isotonic solution has the same solute concentration as another solution. Hypotonic solution – A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration than another solution. Hypertonic solution – A hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration than another solution. Van’t Hoff Correction Factor To explain the abnormal values of colligative properties and consequently molecular masses a correction factor kn...
