Which of the following is incorrect.

A

Relative lowering of vapour pressure is independent

B

The vapour pressure is a colligative property

C

Vapour pressure of a solution is lower than the vapour

pressure of the solvent

D

The relative lowering of vapour pressure is directly

propertional to the original pressure

Answer

The relative lowering of vapour pressure is directly

propertional to the original pressure

Explanation

Solution

According to Raoult's law, the relative lowering in vapour pressure of a dilute solution is equal to mole fraction of the solute present in the solution.
