<span>When a solute is added to a solvent, some properties are affected and these set of properties are called colligative properties. The properties depend on the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. These properties include freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, osmotic pressure and vapor pressure lowering.<span> </span></span>

Answer:

The boiling point increases and freezing point decreases on addition of non volatile solute in a solvent.

Explanation:

When we add a non volatile solute in a volatile solvent, the vapor pressure of the resulting solution is lower than the vapor pressure of pure solvent. Due to decrease in vapor pressure:

a) The temperature required to boil the solution increases (boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquids is equal to atmospheric pressure). This is known as elevation in boiling point. It is a colligative property which depends upon number of solute particles.

b) The temperature required to freeze a liquid decreases and this is known as depression in freezing point, which is also a colligative property which depends upon number of solute particles.

A student observes the combustion (burning) of propane (C3H8). Because of the heat and light it generates, the student concludes
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The student's conclusion is not correct

Explanation:

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a reaction to occur. All reactions require there activation energy to be met before the reaction can proceed. When the temperature of a reaction is increased, the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules increases; colliding more with each other, which makes them "surmount" the activation energy of the reaction faster as compared to a lower temperature.

In combustion, there is burning of an hydrocarbon (in this case propane) in excess oxygen. The burning assists in increasing the kinetic energy of the reactant particles which in turn easily surmounts the activation energy of the reaction  by colliding (effective collision) more with oxygen. So, the reaction has an activation energy but the activation energy has been met and passed and hence the reaction is proceeding faster.

Increasing the temperature of a reaction is one of the ways of increasing the rate of a chemical reaction.
