The hypothesis is that salt water freezes faster than fresh water.
The dependent variable is time taken for ice to appear.
The independent variable is presence or absence of salt
The constants are the amount of water in each tray, freezing conditions and length of time of exposure to freezing condition.
The control group is the tray to which salt was not added
The experimental group is the tray to which salt was added
The presence of solutes in a solution causes the freezing point depression.
A solution is made up of a solute and a solvent. In the presence of a solute, the freezing point of a pure solvent is decreased. This is because freezing point is a colligative property.
Colligative properties depend on the amount of solute present.
Hence, the pure water freezes faster (ice begin to appear earlier) than the salt water.
The hypothesis put forward in this experiment was found to be invalid by the experiment.

I believe this is right
Answer: option D. the ability of a base to react with a soluble metal salt.
Justification:
NaOH is a strong base, which means that in water it will dissociate according to this reaction:
- NaOH(aq) → Na⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq)
On the other hand, CuSO₄ is a soluble ionic salt which in water will dissociate into its ions according to this other reaction:
Hence, in solution, the sodium ion (Na⁺) will react with the metal salt in a double replacement reaction, where the highly reactive sodium ion (Na⁺) will substitute the Cu²⁺ in the CuSO₄ to form the sodium sulfate salt, Na₂SO₄ (water soluble), and the copper(II) hydroxide, Cu(OH)₂ (insoluble).
That is what the given reaction represents:
CuSO₄ (aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Cu(OH)₂(s) + Na₂SO₄(aq)

The answer I believe is B. Erosion
Explanation:
Just sounds better than all the other choices.
