3. A student dissolves 5.4 g of salt into 100 g of water. Which of the following statements is correct regarding the resulting solution when it is compared to the pure solvent? The freezing temperature will ______, the boiling temperature will _________, the vapor pressure will _______. Can someone fill in the blank for me or help me explain it

i think as decrease, increase, increase

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Give me a sec, I'll explain you properly.

Okay thanks

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Ok, so all these boiling point, freezing point and vapor pressure are colligative properties and depend upon the concentration of solute particles in the solution. \(\boxed {\tt Conc. ~of ~ Solute~particles \propto Boiling~point}\)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

\(\boxed {\tt Conc. ~of ~ Solute~particles \propto \frac{1}{Freezing~point}}\)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

\(\boxed {\tt Conc. ~of ~ Solute~particles \propto \frac{1}{Vapor~pressure}}\)

im not looking for numbers

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Are you getting this?
