What would a diagram look like for the question Does salt water boil faster than plain water?

A possible diagram could show two separate containers, one filled with plain water and the other with salt water, both being heated. Temperature measurements over time could be plotted on the diagram to show the rate of temperature increase for each type of water. This could help visualize and compare whether salt water boils faster than plain water.


How does adding salt to water effect how it boils?

Raises the temperature at which the water boilsAdding salt does not make the water boil faster, but makes the water boil at a higher temperature than 100 degrees Celsius. This may allow you to cook food in that water faster than in plain boiling water.


What boils faster salt water or plain water?
