What Happens to the Freezing Temperature of a Salt Water

question 36

Multiple Choice

What happens to the freezing temperature of a salt water solution as it becomes more concentrated?

• A)As salt water becomes more concentrated, the temperature at which it freezes become lower because fewer water molecules of the liquid phase in contact with the ice.
• B)As salt water becomes more concentrated, the temperature at which it freezes become higher because salt ions help to hold together the ice.
• C)As salt water becomes more concentrated, the temperature at which it freezes does not change.
• D)As salt water becomes more concentrated, the temperature at which it freezes become higher because the molecules are moving faster as they interact with the salt ions.
