Molality and Colligative Properties

The video explains colligative properties, which are characteristics of solutions that depend on solute concentration rather than chemical identity. It covers vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, and freezing point depression, emphasizing the role of solute particles in these phenomena. The video also distinguishes between molality and molarity, highlighting the importance of molality in discussing colligative properties. Practical applications, such as using salt to lower the freezing point of water on icy streets, are also discussed.
