Adding salt to water increases its boiling point, causing it to boil at a higher temperature compared to plain water. This is due to the salt increasing the boiling point of the water by raising its boiling point elevation.
Adding salt to water lowers the freezing point of the water, meaning it will freeze at a lower temperature than pure water. The exact temperature will depend on the concentration of salt in the water.
Adding salt to water increases the boiling point of water, which in turn can decrease the rate of evaporation. However, once the water is in the liquid state, the presence of salt does not significantly affect the process of evaporation.
Adding salt to ice lowers its temperature and melting point. This is because salt disrupts the normal freezing process of water, causing the ice to melt at a lower temperature than it would without salt.
Adding more salt to water increases its density, making objects more buoyant and easier to float in the water. It also lowers the freezing point of water, allowing it to remain liquid at colder temperatures. Additionally, salt increases the boiling point of water, meaning it will take longer to reach its boiling point.
No, adding salt to water actually raises the boiling point, not lowers it. This is due to the fact that salt lowers the vapor pressure of the water, making it harder for the water to evaporate and therefore requiring a higher temperature to boil.
