Question

A solution that contains a solute that is nonvolatile (not easily vaporized) always has a lower vapor pressure than the pure solvent. *

- true
- false

Answer 1

I think the answer is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

At any given temperature, the vapor pressure of a solution containing a nonvolatile solute is less than that of the pure solvent. This effect is called vapor pressure lowering.
