Answer:
Hi,
The correct answer option is (B)The solute raises the boiling point of the solvent
Explanation:
Boiling point of a solvent is affected by the number of particles in a solution.Adding a solute to a solvent increases its boiling point because it lowers the vapor pressure of the solution.This is all about colligative properties where a decrease in vapor pressure will mean more heat needed to heat the solution to a boiling point.
All the best.
