Two aqueous are prepared: 1.00 m Na₂CO₃and 1.00 m LiCl. Which of the following statements is true? A) The Na₂CO₃solution has a higher osmotic pressure and higher vapor pressure than the LiCl solution. B) The Na₂CO₃solution has a higher osmotic pressure and higher boiling point than the LiCl solution. C) The Na₂CO₃solution has a lower osmotic pressure and lower vapor pressure than the LiCI solution. D) The Na₂CO₃solution has a lower osmotic pressure and higher boiling point than the LiCl solution. E) None of the above statements is true.

Na₂CO₃ dissociates into 3 ions (2 Na⁺ and 1 CO₃²⁻), while LiCl dissociates into 2 ions (1 Li⁺ and 1 Cl⁻). More ions result in higher osmotic pressure and boiling point elevation.
