There are two classes of constants for solvents.

They are ; -

Ebullioscopic Constants; raising of boiling point when a solute is a present.

Cryoscopic Constants ; depression of freezing point when a solute is present.

Pure Water boils at 100oC at STP. On addition of a say sodium chloride (common table salt) the boiling point will be raised, to about ??? 101oC

Conversely, pure water freezes at 0oC at STP . On addition of salt again , the freezing point will be lowered.

NB Used on roads to prevent surface water from freezing.

NNB Aluminium oxide is dissolved in cryolite, so that it is melts/liquid at a lower temperature, in the electrolysis on bauxite to make aluminium.

Does salt evaporate in boiling water?

No, salt does not evaporate in boiling water. When water boils, it turns into steam, leaving behind the salt in the water. Salt does not have a low enough boiling point to evaporate along with the water.


What effect does sugar and salt have on evaporation of water?

Sugar and salt both have the effect of increasing the boiling point of water. This means that it will take longer for the water to reach its boiling point and evaporate when there is sugar or salt dissolved in it. This is because the presence of sugar or salt disrupts the water molecules, making it harder for them to escape into the air.


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.


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.


What does the boiling of salt water compare to the boiling point of fresh water?

The boiling point of salt water is higher than that of fresh water because the presence of salt increases the boiling point of a solution. Salt water requires more energy to come to a boil compared to fresh water at the same atmospheric pressure.

What is the independent variable in this experiment what effect does table salt have on the temperature of boiling water?

The independent variable in this experiment is the amount of table salt added to the boiling water. The effect of adding salt to the water is to raise the boiling point of the water, therefore increasing the temperature at which the water boils.


How do you do the project to How does the salt effect the boiling temperature of water?

Because the salt is an impurity it raises the boiling point by density differences


How does salt effect the properties of water?

Salt increases the boiling point of water and lowers its freezing point.


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.


Did salt and sugar affect the boiling temperature of water exactly the same?

yes, but i couldn't tell you the mechanics of it.


Does salt affect the boiling point of water and why?

Salt will increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point of water due to colligative properties. Table salt (NaCl) breaks into ions when dissolved. This lowers the vapor pressure of water. When salt dissolves its ions are moving around in the water, and some are near the surface. Rather than all the water just boiling off, some of these ions get in the way, which will raise the boiling point. This effect is not only caused by salt, but by dissolved substance. In general, the more ions or particles dissolved, the greater the effect on boiling point, so MgCl2 would have a greater effect on boiling point than NaCl, because MgCl2 dissociates into three ions instead of two.
