When adding a spoonful of salt to water that is already boiling slowly it suddenly produces a lot of bubbles while the water is cooled and the boiling point raised how is this possible?

The presence of a non volatile solute in the solution decreases the vapour pressure of the solvent.So, when a spoonful of salt is added to boiling water,
the temperature at which the water in the solution state boils is increased.

Adding salt to boiling water disrupts the hydrogen bonding between water molecules, causing them to move faster and generate more bubbles. The boiling point of water increases with the addition of salt because the salt ions reduce the vapor pressure of the water, requiring higher temperatures for it to boil.

Which is not a product of photosynthesis?
Water is not a product of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis produces glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen as products by converting carbon dioxide and water into energy using sunlight.
What will bacteria do with products for starch hydrolysis?
Let me guess, this question is for a lab write up in your microbiology class? When your bacteria, probably Bacillus cereus, act on starch they produce glucose. You have probably already done this lab but the bacteria will ferment the glucose. E.coli does not hydrolyze the starch because it does not produce amylase (which break down the starch into simple sugars).
