As we learned

 

Properties of Colloidal Solutions -

Colligative Properties

- wherein

Colloidal particles being bigger aggregates, the number of particles in a colloidal solution is comparatively small as compared to a true solution. Hence, the value of colligative properties (osmotic pressure, lowering in vapour, pressure, depression in freezing point, etc.) are of small order compared to true solution of same concentration.

 

 Freezing point of colloidal solution is higher than true solution at same concentration of solute 


Option 1)

Freezing point of colloidal solution is lower than true solution at same concentration of a solute.

Option 2)
