Answer:

forcing the opposition to back down.

Explanation:

“Brinkmanship” is the strategic technique that is sometimes practiced in foreign conflicts. It means to push the conflict dangerously close to the active confrontation with the idea opponent shall back down to avoid the violent encounter or, potentially, the war. The strategy relies on power play and chance-taking. While the strategy was performed many times in history, the term was first used by U.S. secretary of state John Foster Dulles.

The term was then popularized during the Cold war as it was the conflict that relied heavily on these kinds of strategies. The most famous example of brinkmanship also comes from this time. It is the Cuban missile crisis. This event is notable because the Soviet Union has placed nuclear weapons on the Cuban land, which is rather near to the U.S. as well as its sphere of influence. In response to the threat, the US blockaded Cuba. These acts show us the performance of brinkmanship on both sides.

When a nonvolatile solute is added to a volatile solvent, the solution vapor pressure __________, the boiling point __________,

UNO [17]

Answer: the filled in options are(from up to down): decreases; increases; decreases and increases

Explanation:

Ok, let us first full in the gap from the question;

''When a nonvolatile solute is added to a volatile solvent, the solution vapor pressure DECREASES, the boiling point INCREASES, the freezing point DECREASES, and the osmotic pressure across a semipermeable membrane INCREASES.

First, volatility is the tendency of a substance to vaporize.

WHAT IS A NON VOLATILE SOLUTE/SUBSTANCE ?:

A non volatile solute will not produce vapour at the boiling point of a particular solution. It is a solute that has low vapour pressure. This property, that is, a low vapour pressure will cause an increase in the boiling point. An example is glucose.

Non volatile solute, apart from increament in boiling point called boiling point elevation, it also decreases freezing point called freezing point depression.

Also, colligative properties such as osmotic pressure increases.
