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.

Depends on what the problems are, you are going to have to be a bit more specific, Young Padawan
Answer: 10.9 mol.
Explanation:
- To understand how to solve this problem, we must mention the reaction equation where water produced from PbO₂.
Pb + PbO₂ + 2H₂SO₄ → 2PbSO₄ + 2H₂O
- Now, it is a stichiometric oriented problem, that 1 mole of PbO₂ produces 2 moles of H₂O.
Using cross multiplication:
1.0 mole of PbO₂ → 2.0 moles of H₂O
5.43 moles of PbO₂ → ??? moles of water
The moles of water produced = (5.43 x 2.0) = 10.86 moles ≅ 10.9 moles.
The partial pressure of Hydrogen gas can directly be calculated
by simply taking the difference of the overall pressure and the vapour pressure
of water. That is:
P (H2 gas) = 759.2 torr – 23.8 torr
<span>P (H2 gas) = 735.4 torr</span>
