When a substance is dissolved in water, the properties of the solution will be different from those of the water.
Which statement correctly describes a change that occurs with the addition of solute?

A)The solute particles will cause the solution to have a decreased boiling point.

B)The solution's freezing point will be lower than water's freezing point.

C)The vapor pressure above the solution will be greater than that above the water.

D)The water's osmotic pressure will be greater than the solution's osmotic pressure.

Respuesta :

The statement which correctly describes a change that occurs with the addition of solute is that the solution's freezing point will be lower than water's freezing point and is denoted as option B.

What is Solution?

This is derived when a solute is dissolved in a solvent under appropriate conditions and also decreases the boiling point due to the foreign substances present(solutes) in it.

The solution's freezing point will however be lower than water's freezing point in this scenario as a lesser temperature will be involved in its conversion to the solid phase thereby making it the most appropriate choice.
