Detailed Solution

We know that Raoult established that relative lowering of vapour pressure depends only on the concentration of the solute particles.

As Relative lowering of vapour pressure=PA=xAPA0

Since molality is the same for all and Urea, Glucose, and Sucrose all are non-electrolytes and do not ionize into ions when dissolved in water. Hence all will have the same lowering of vapour pressure.

So, the Correct answer is (d).
