Question

Pressure and addition of solutes to water are directly proportional to the melting point of the substance (eg:-ice).TRUE or FALSE.

Answer 1

False:

Increasing the solutes of water increases its boiling point linearly and conversely solutes may be estimated from boiling point. Similarly the melting point of salty water is less and Fahrenheit defined the lower fixed point on his temperature scale as the lowest constant temperature that he knew
