does the type of solute in water affect boiling point of water?

Question

its just research for now... its for science... can you tell me this and sites to help me?

solute(salt, peper, sugar....ect.)

Answer 1

Yes. Marine salad water boils at 100,6 centigrades.
Of course boiling point also depends on the atmospheric pressure.

Answer 2

Yes, to the extent that the van Hoff factor allows. In layman's terms, the number of particles that a given ionic compound splits into affects the extent to which the boiling point is raised (or the freezing point is lowered). NaCl splits into two parts (two ions, Na+ and Cl-). FeCl3 splits into 4 particles (Fe3+ and 3Cl-).

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Anything suspended in water will impact both freezing and boiling points... and water is a pretty remarkable substance, one of only two that expands on freezing rather than contracting for instance.

Answer 4

ya Boiling point of the solution increases.



this phenomenon is known as ELEVATION IN BOILING POINT
