For a dilute solution containing $2.5 \ g$ of a non-volatile non-electrolyte solute in $100 \ g$ of water,the elevation in boiling point at $1 \ atm$ pressure is $2^{\circ} C$. Assuming the concentration of solute is much lower than the concentration of solvent,the vapour pressure ($mm$ of $Hg$) of the solution is (take $K_{b}=0.76 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$)

Properties such as boiling point,freezing point,and vapour pressure of a pure solvent change when solute molecules are added to get a homogeneous solution. These are called colligative properties. Applications of colligative properties are very useful in day-to-day life. One of its examples is the use of an ethylene glycol and water mixture as an anti-freezing liquid in the radiator of automobiles.
