In the following question, a statement of Assertion followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the following choices:
Assertion : Colloidal solutions show colligative properties.
Reason (R): Colloidal particles are large in size.
(i) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
(ii) Both Assertion and Reason arc correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
(iii) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
(iv) Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
(v) Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
The answer is the option (ii) The number of colloidal particles is lesser than the true solution since colloidal particles are large in size and leads to lower colligative properties.
