- The properties which depend on the number of solute particles irrespective of their nature relative to the total number of particles in the solution are called colligative properties. These are relative lowering of vapour pressure of the solvent, depression of freesing point of the solvent, elevation of boiling point of the solvent and osmotic pressure of the solution. All of these properties help in calculating the observed molar mass of the solute.
Determination of osmotic pressure is considered best for the determination of molecular mass of the solute.

Ethers with the general formula \(C _n H _{2 n+2} O\) and functional group C-O-C may be divided as symmetrical and unsymmetrical.
Lower symmetrical ether may be obtained by the dehydration of alcohols at low temperatures in the presence of protic acids,
such as \(H _2 SO _4\) and \(H _3 PO _4\) whereas at high temperature intramolecular dehydration takes place.
Formation of ether from primary alcohols is also accompanied by the formation of small amount of alkenes.
Due to the steric hinderance, secondary and tertiary alcohols undergo elimination reaction rather than substitution reaction yielding alkene as major product. Ethers can also be obtained by heating alkyl halides with sodium or potassium alkoxides.
Substituted Ethers (secondary & tertiary) can also be prepared using this method.
If primary halides are replaced with secondary and tertiary halides, alkenes are the major products.
The major product in the following reaction is
