As concentration of a solute (like table salt) in a solvent increases, the freezing point of water lowers. The vapor pressure also decreases, and the boiling point increases. These are known as water's colligative properties.

If you add solute to a dilute solution the solution becomes more what solution?

The dilute solution become a concentrated solution.


What effect does adding a solute to a solvent have on the freezing point of the solvent?

the temperature at which the solution freezes is lowered.


Why is salt added to pulses before cooking at their atmospheric pressure?

The freezing point of water at sea level is 0°C. This temperature can be changed, however, by adding impurities in water. Sprinkling salt on road surfaces on an icy day melts the ice by lowering the melting temperature. Salt is also used in simple ice cream machines during cooling of the cream. In an ice cream machine, the vessel containing the ice cream mixture is cooled by concentrated brine (salt-water solution) which has a temperature that is lower than the freezing point of ice cream mixture. Another consequence of the decrease in freezing point due to impurities is the soft texture of ice cream. As ice cream freezes, the remaining liquid becomes more and more concentrated with sugar and other impurities. The concentrated liquid has a much lower freezing temperature than water. As a result, ice cream never completely freezes, and retains the characteristic soft texture.


What happens if solute is diluted?

As you add solute to a dilute If_you_add_solute_to_a_dilute_solution_what_does_the_solution_become, the solution becomes more concentrated until the solution has reached its saturation concentration. At the saturation concentration, no more solute can dissolve into the solution.Read more: If_you_add_solute_to_a_dilute_solution_what_does_the_solution_become


When a liquid turns to a solid what is that called?

Freezing. It may seem strange, because things that 'freeze' are not necessarily cold, but the temperature at which something becomes a solid is its 'freezing point'.

What determines if water is melting or freezing at 0 degrees Celsius?

if the temperature raises then water is melting (ice becomes water),if the temperature falls then it's freezing (water becomes ice)


How many degrees does water changes from a liquid state to a solid state at what degrees?

Freezing occurs without any change in temperature. A liquid at freezing temperature becomes a solid at freezing temperature.


What would happen if you were to take a saturated solution at a certain temperature and cool it slowly?

the concentration of this solution is going to reduce.< Lets assume that the solution is comprised of water and salt> Then the water at a certain temperature begins to evaporate unlike the salt. at the end of the process, yes we agree that the solution has finally come to a room temperature, but concentration was lost during cooling. I mean that the solution becomes less concentrated


Temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid?

This is officially known as the freezing point.


Which is dilute and concentrated?

Dilute refers to only a little solute in a large amount of solvent. As the amount of solute is increased the solution becomes more concentrated.

What causes milk to freeze?

I'm not sure I see what you're asking.. Freezing is what happens when I substance gets below it's freezing temperature - the temperature at which it becomes solid.


When liquid gets cool enough it becomes a?

A liquid becomes a solid when the temperature reaches is freezing point.


What is a change in state from liquid to solid called?

It is usually called freezing, but can also be called solidification. It occurs when the temperature goes below the freezing temperature of a substance and that substance solidifies, or becomes hard.
