Addition of any substance to water will increase the boiling point and lower the freezing point.
(A minor clarification: the substance has to dissolve. Adding insoluble materials like sand doesn't change the boiling or freezing point.)

∙ 12y agoThe boiling point of water will go up according to the equation delta(T)=I*K*M
T=temperature
delta(T)=change in temperature
I=the number of ions the solid splits into-- for salt its two Na+ and Cl-
K=boiling point constant
M=molality=moles of solute per kilogram of solution

∙ 6y agoThe boiling point (temperature) rises as salt (a solute) is added, as this interferes with the phase change from liquid to gas - it reduces the average vapor pressure of the salted water, while the atmospheric vapor pressure remains generally the same. In any case, the water evaporates and leaves the salt behind.

How does salt affect the boiling point of salt water?
by incresening the destiny of the product of water
What effect does salt have on hot water?
Salt raises the boiling point of water. The process is known as boiling point elevation. The higher the concentration of salt in the water, the higher the boiling point of water is raised.
Can salt water is used to determine the boiling point of water?
No, salt water cannot be used to accurately determine the boiling point of ultrapure water. Salt water boils at a slightly higher temperature than pure water; salt water can be used to determine the boiling point of salt water.
Goes salt lower boiling temperature of water?
Salt will lower the melting point, and raise the boiling point of water.
After Felix adds salt to the boiling water what will he have in the pot?
Salt water, but the water will stop boiling because upon adding the salt it raised the boiling point of water.
Does salt lower the boiling point?
Yes, Salt also lowers the freezing point of water, and lowers the boiling point of water. Add salt to a boiling pot of water and it immediately boils faster/harder at the location that the Salt hit the water.
Why does the boiling point of water change when salt is added?
By adding salt it means that you are adding an impurity into the water. Impurities can lower the boiling point, while increasing its melting point.
How does salt affect the boiling point of salt water?

Why does it take less time for water to boil when sugar is added?
Actually, it's when salt is added; it decreases the boiling point of water.
What effect does salt have on hot water?
Salt raises the boiling point of water. The process is known as boiling point elevation. The higher the concentration of salt in the water, the higher the boiling point of water is raised.
Does salt evaporate in boiling water?
The boiling point of salt is much much higher than the boiling point of water. So the salt stays behind while the temperature of the water remains at the boiling point of water.
Can salt water is used to determine the boiling point of water?
No, salt water cannot be used to accurately determine the boiling point of ultrapure water. Salt water boils at a slightly higher temperature than pure water; salt water can be used to determine the boiling point of salt water.
Should salt be added to water to make it boil fast or leave it out?
Don't add salt. Salt raises the boiling point of water, making it take longer.
Goes salt lower boiling temperature of water?
Salt will lower the melting point, and raise the boiling point of water.
What happens to a nonvolatile solute when added to water and the water raises?
Boiling-point elevation describes the phenomenon that the boiling point of a liquid (a solvent) will be higher when another compound is added, meaning that a solution has a higher boiling point than a pure solvent. This happens whenever a non-volatile solute, such as a salt, is added to a pure solvent, such as water. The boiling point can be measured accurately using an ebullioscope.
Why is salt added while boiling egg?
Adding salt increases the boilling point of the water, thus decreasing cooking time.
What does the boiling of salt water compare to the boiling point of fresh water?
The boiling point of freshwater is lower than the boiling point of saltwater.
