what is the effect of dissolving salt in water on boiling point of water

Open in App

Solution

The boiling point of pure water is 100⁰ C. However, dissolving salt in water increases the boiling point of water. Thus, a solution of salt in water will not boil at 100⁰ C, but at a higher temperature.
