According to raoult's law, which statement is false?
(a) ionic solutes dissociate in solution causing an enhancement of all colligative properties.
(b) the greater the pressure of a gas over a solution the greater its solubility.
(c) the vapor pressure of a solvent over a solution decreases as its mole fraction increases.
(d) the solubility of a gas increases as the temperature decreases.
(e) the vapor pressure of a solvent over a solution is less than that of pure solvent.

The answer is (A) Ionic solutes dissociate in solution causing an enhancement of all colligative properties.

Explanation:

When a solute dissociates in solution, it causes changes in colligative properties. In several properties an increase is produced (like in boiling point) whereas in others a decrease is produced (like in melting point and vapor pressure). Colligative properties are these that depend of the number of solute particles there are in a solution. Raoult's law is about vapor pressure of a solvent, and it says that the vapor pressure of a solvent decreases when a solute is added. As greater the number of solute particles in solution, lesser the vapor pressure of the solvent. That is due to the fact that solute particles interact with solvent molecules and avoid its escape to gas phase. So, there are less solute particles in gas phase and consequently its vapor pressure is less.

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
