Answer:
Many organic solutes when dissolved in non-aqueous (non polar) solvent associate to form a bigger molecule. Thus the no. of molecules decreases and hence colligative properties decrease.
Examples:
Acetic acid in benzene, chloro acetic acid in naphthalene

Association of two molecules (dimerisation) of acetic acid in benzene.
 
 
 Some solutes (organic acids, bases and salts) in aqueous solution undergo dissociation. In such case no. of particles increases and hence colligative properties increase.
Examples:
Dissociation of NaCl in aqueous solution.
Consider the following dissociation reaction,
NaCl 
(1 - ?)		 Na+(aq) +
?		 Cl- (aq)
?
moles after dissociation

We say in a solution made up of a solvent and a solute, the majour component is solvent and the sbstance present in small propotions is solute.
But if we take the case of a 50-50 solution where each component is present at equaly, how can we diffrentiate between a solvent and a solute?
