Why is it when a solute is added to a pure liquid the boiling point increases and the freezing point decreases?
Boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals atmospheric pressure. The vapor pressure of solvent molecules is decreased when a solute is added, so a higher temperature is required to increase the number of solvent molecules in the gas phase above the liquid. At the freezing point, the vapor pressures of the solid and liquid are equal; a lower temperature is needed to reduce the number of solvent particles above the liquid.
How will the vapor pressure of pure water compare to an aqueous solution of sodium chloride?
The solution's vapor pressure will be lower.
Compared to the pure water an aqueous solution of calcium chloride has a?
Higher boiling point and a lower freezing point. These are called colligative properties. When a solute is put into solution with the solvent, there is a change in the vapor pressure, osmotic pressure, elevation of the boiling point, and depression of the freezing point.
What does barometric pressure have to do with evaporation?
Above the surface of liquid water is a layer of water vapor. It has pressure. The atmosphere also has pressure. It pushes against the water vapor. The water vapor pushes against the atmosphere. It is called vapor pressure. It is related to temperature. When the vapor pressure equals barometric pressure, water boils. Normally this occurs at 100C or 212F. If you reduce the barometric pressure, you can reduce the boiling point of water. So when the barometric pressure is lower, the water vapor above the water has an easier time mixing with the atmosphere. As it mixes with the atmosphere, it is replaced by vapor from the water. It evaporates.

What statements is true about vapor pressure?
The vapor pressure of 1 m sucrose (C12H22O11) is higher than the vapor pressure of 1 m NaCl where the solvent is water Sea water has a lower vapor pressure than distilled water. The vapor pressure of 0.5 m NaNO3 is the same as the vapor pressure of 0.5 m KBr, assuming that the solvent in each case is water The vapor pressure of 0.10 m KCl is the same as the vapor pressure of 0.05 m AlCl3 assuming the solvent in each case is water The vapor pressure of 1 m NaCl is lower than the vapor pressure of 0.5 m KNO3, assuming that the solvent in each case is water The vapor pressure of 0.10 m NaCl is lower than the vapor pressure of 0.05 m MgCl2 assuming the solvent in each case is water.
The difference between vapor pressure of a pure solvent and its partial pressure?
vapor pressure of a pure solvent is the pressure needed for the gas to escape the pure solvent in vapor form. its partial pressure in this case will be the pressure of that escaped vapour (in the mixture of air). in simpler terms vapor pressure describes a single condensable system (just the vapor of the solvent and the liquid state of the solvent) while its partial pressure describes the multicomponent system (air). they are essentially the same thing describing different systems
What will adding solute to pure solvents cause?
Adding a solute to a pure solvent will lower the freezing point, elevate the boiling point, and lower the vapor pressure.
The solute molecules mixed with the solvent molecules in a solution cause the of a solution to be higher than it is for an equal volume of pure solvent?
Raoult's Law and Vapor Pressure LoweringWhen a nonvolatile solute is added to a liquid to form a solution, the vapor pressure above that solution decreases. To understand why that might occur, let's analyze the vaporization process of the pure solvent then do the same for a solution. Liquid molecules at the surface of a liquid can escape to the gas phase when they have a sufficient amount of energy to break free of the liquid's intermolecular forces. That vaporization process is reversible. Gaseous molecules coming into contact with the surface of a liquid can be trapped by intermolecular forces in the liquid. Eventually the rate of escape will equal the rate of capture to establish a constant, equilibrium vapor pressure above the pure liquid.If we add a nonvolatile solute to that liquid, the amount of surface area available for the escaping solvent molecules is reduced because some of that area is occupied by solute particles. Therefore, the solvent molecules will have a lower probability to escape the solution than the pure solvent. That fact is reflected in the lower vapor pressure for a solution relative to the pure solvent. That statement is only true if the solvent is nonvolatile. If the solute has its own vapor pressure, then the vapor pressure of the solution may be greater than the vapor pressure of the solvent.Note that we did not need to identify the nature of the solvent or the solute (except for its lack of volatility) to derive that the vapor pressure should be lower for a solution relative to the pure solvent. That is what makes vapor pressure lowering a colligative property--it only depends on the number of dissolved solute particles.summarizes our discussion so far. On the surface of the pure solvent (shown on the left) there are more solvent molecules at the surface than in the right-hand solution flask. Therefore, it is more likely that solvent molecules escape into the gas phase on the left than on the right. Therefore, the solution should have a lower vapor pressure than the pure solvent.Figure %: The Vapor Pressure of a Solution is Lower than that of the Pure Solvent

A solution has a higher vapor pressure than a pure solvent. This is why salt water boils faster than pure water.
Why is vapor pressure of solution of glucose in water lower than that of water?
vapour pressure of a solution containing non volatile solute if a non volatile solute is added to volatile solvent the vapour pressure of the solution is lower than the vapour pressure of pure component glucose is non volatile and water is volatile The surface of a pure solvent is populated only by solvent molecules therefore its easier for them to escape . but when glucose is present only solvent molecules volatile They alone can escape to build up the vapor pressure of the solution by Vijay Iyer
How does the addition of solute affect freezing and boiling point and vapor pressure on a solvent?
A non-volatile solute affects increases osmotic pressure. This is a colligative property. There will be a higher osmotic pressure required to prevent the solvent from flowing into the solution because the solvent has a higher chemical potential without solute in it.
Why is it when a solute is added to a pure liquid the boiling point increases and the freezing point decreases?
Boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals atmospheric pressure. The vapor pressure of solvent molecules is decreased when a solute is added, so a higher temperature is required to increase the number of solvent molecules in the gas phase above the liquid. At the freezing point, the vapor pressures of the solid and liquid are equal; a lower temperature is needed to reduce the number of solvent particles above the liquid.

Solutes raise and lower the boiling points of solvents. :)
