Answer is: adding NaCl will lower the freezing point of a solution.

A solution (in this example solution of sodium chloride) freezes at a lower temperature than does the pure solvent (deionized water).

The higher the solute concentration (sodium chloride), freezing point depression of the solution will be greater.

Equation describing the change in freezing point:

ΔT = Kf · b · i.

ΔT - temperature change from pure solvent to solution.

Kf - the molal freezing point depression constant.

b - molality (moles of solute per kilogram of solvent).

i - Van’t Hoff Factor.

Dissociation of sodium chloride in water: NaCl(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

Adding NaCl (salt) will lower the freezing point. Examples of this include salt water bodies like the ocean, and why salt is spread on roadways during snow and icy conditions.

Answer:

Evaporation is great for separating a mixture (solution) of a soluble solid and a solvent. The process involves heating the solution until the solvent evaporates (turns into gas) leaving behind the solid residue. ... This method is best for separating a liquid from a solution.

Filtration is a method for separating an insoluble solid from a liquid. When a mixture of sand and water is filtered: the sand stays behind in the filter paper (it becomes the residue ) the water passes through the filter paper (it becomes the filtrate )

Magnetic separation is the process of separating components of mixtures by using magnets to attract magnetic materials. ... Due to the magnets, magnetic particles are being drifted by the movement of the drums. This can create a magnetic concentrate (e.g. an ore concentrate).
