Solution

The correct option is C Both the Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct, but Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.
Addition of salt decreases the freezing point of water because the decrease in the freezing point of water is directly proportional to the Vont Hoff factor and for salt Vant Hoff factor is greater than 1
