Does salt affect the temperature of water -boiling point - freezing point?
i would opt for the Freezing point. salt decreases the freezing point of water. so if water would normally freeze at 0C, saltwater would freeze at -3C.
Does salt lower the freezing point of water?
Yes, salt does lower the freezing point water. This happens because some of the water is displaced by the salt thus decreasing the number of molecules able to be easily frozen.
What is the relationship between the freezing point of salt water and distilled water?
The freezing point of salt water is lower than the freezing point of distilled water.
What kind of salt to use on sidewalks for snow?
Salt works by lowering the melting or freezing point of water. The effect is termed 'freezing point depression'.
How are boiling and freezing points of a sample of water affected when salt is dissolved in the water?
the freezing and boiling points rise significantly- this is why when you boil water in a saucepan, like for pasta, it is advised that you put salt in the water so that the water boils at a higher temperature, thus allowing you to heat the water to a higher temperature. hope this helps
How does salt affect the melting and freezing point of water?
Salt decreases the freezing point of water and increases the boiling point of water.
What is the freezing point of salt?
Salt, being a crystalized mineral with no water content has no freezing point.
Why does the freezing point affect the freezing of salt water?
It does not, but salt affects the freezing point. All solids are frozen. Each has a different freezing point. Ice is just the freezing point of water. But your computer keys are frozen too. Different substances freeze differently. But for your purposes, compare water to salt water. The salt in the water causes there to be more things in the water that disrupt the tight hydrogen bonds.Since freezing is tighter H-bonds, salt lowers the freezing temperature because it is harder to freeze it now since there is salt in it.
What is the procedure for does salt affect the tempute rof the heating or freezing point of water?
When salt is dissolved in water, the freezing point of water drops and the boiling point of water elevates.
Does salt affest the freezing point of water and why?
The addition of salt to water will affect the freezing point as it the freezing point temperature is lowered. It's not the salt that lowers the temperature but it's because a new solution that was created.
How does salt affect the water's melting point?
Adding salt to water the freezing point decrease.
Which has a higher freezing point a 20 percent salt solution or pure water?
Pure water has a higher freezing point than 20% salt water.
What is the freezing point of hot salt water?
Same as the cold salt water.
What does salt do to an ice water bath?
The motivation is to decrease thr freezing point.
What effect does salt have on the freezing pont of water?
It lowers the freezing point.
How does salt effect the properties of water?
Salt increases the boiling point of water and lowers its freezing point.
How does adding salt affect the freezing point of water and what is the procedure of this experiment?
Adding salt (sodium chloride) the freezing point of water decrease; for an experiment add gradually salt (in known quantities) and measure the freezing point after each addition.
