The answer would be B) Lower, because pure water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit whereas salt water freezes at 28.4 degrees Fahrenheit. Hopefully this helps!

Answer:

Freezing point of seawater is lower as compared to pure water

Explanation:

Seawater contains salts like MgCl_{2}, NaCl etc.

According to colligative properties of molecules, presence of solute in a pure solvent lowers freezing point of pure solvent obeying the following equation-

                                        \Delta T_{f}=k_{f}.m

where \Delta T_{f} is lowering of freezing point, k_{f} if cryogenoscopic constant of solvent and m is molality of solution.

In seawater, water is the solvent and MgCl_{2}, NaCl etc are solutes.

Hece freezing point of seawater is lower than pure water

Hypothesis: Explain the relationship between forward and reverse reactions at equilibrium and predict how changing the amount of
postnew [5]

Explanation:

forward reaction

a reaction in which reactent react to form product is known as forward reaction

reverse reaction

a reaction in which product react to form reactent is known as reverse reaction

At equilibrium stage

In a chemical equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates, and the concentrations of products and reactants remain constant. A catalyst speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction, but has no effect upon the equilibrium position for that reaction.

changing amount of reactent and product

lechatlier principle

" if you impose any change in concentration ( reactant or product) , temperature or pressure on chemical system, the system response in that way that opposes the change "
