Question

Which option correctly describes freezing point depression When salt is added to a mixture of ice and water salt will occupy some space in the liquid There are now fewer water particles per unit volume and the freezing point will go down Salt particles will have no effect on a solid the melting point of the ice will stay the same When salt is added to a mixture of ice and water the freezing point will increase since salt has a higher freezing point than water Salt particles will have a similar effect on the solid increasing its melting point since salt has a higher melting point than water When salt is added to a mixture of ice and water the freezing point will go down since salt has a lower freezing point than water Salt particles will have a similar effect on the solid increasing its melting point since salt has a higher melting point than water When salt is added to a mixture of ice and water salt will occupy some space in the liquid There are now fewer water particles per unit volume and the rate of freezing and melting will go down increasing the rate of melting but not the melting point
