When a non volatile solid is added to pure water it will...the answer should be C right
Dear student,
when a non-volatile solute is added to a pure solvent (here water) its boiling point increases which is called elevation in boiling point while its freezing point decreases which is called depression in freezing point.
Boiling point of water = 1000C
Freezing point of water = 00C
Thus water will boil above 1000C and freezes below 00C.
Answer - Option c
note- wrong answer in given in book.
