When a substance is dissolved in a solvent,the vapour pressure of the solvent is decreased. This results in:

  • A
    An increase in the $b.p.$ of the solution
  • B
    $A$ decrease in the $b.p.$ of the solvent
  • C
    The solution having a higher freezing point than the solvent
  • D
    The solution having a lower osmotic pressure than the solvent
