This document provides solutions to four colligative properties problems involving mixtures of various compounds in water or ethanol. The first problem involves calculating properties of a nitrobenzene-water mixture. The second problem involves calculating properties of a caffeine-water mixture. The third problem involves calculating properties of a sodium sulfate-water mixture. The fourth problem involves using boiling point elevation and osmotic pressure measurements to identify an unknown analgesic as acetaminophen from a mixture with ethanol.
