Detailed Solution

Since the solute X behaves as univalent electrolyte in solution, so for this solute, i = 2
Since the solute Y dimerises in solution, so for this
 solute i=12
We know that
b.p.  i, b.p. of X will be greater than that of Y
 Osmotic pressure i, O.P. of X> O.P. of Y
 Freezing point 1i; f.p. of X< f.p. of Y
 and relative lowering of V.P. i.e. ΔPPi
ΔPPX>ΔPPY
Thus statement (d) is incorrect. All other statements are correct.
