When a solute is added to a solvent, the boiling point is raised according to the equation ΔTb=Kbm. Thus, the boiling temperature of a solution can be described by: Tb(solution)=ΔTb + Tb(pure solvent).

However, for the purposes of this question, adding a solute increases the boiling point of a solution.

They raise the boiling point by different amounts - depending on the substance and on the concentration of the solution.

It does not affect the temperature of the water, but solutes raise the boiling point and lower the freezing point.


Do solutes increase or decrease the boiling point of a solvent?

No; solutes don't decrease the boiling point of the solvent, they increase it! Solutes decrease the melting point of the solvent! Think of it this way: low goes lower (melting point) and high goes higher (boiling point).
