question 9 of 12 sci_phys_cfa2_propertiesofma... submit test 3 10 - 10.1 based on paulines data which of the following is a likely hypothesis for her experiment? if you increase the amount of salt in water, then it will result in a decrease in the waters freezing point temperature if you increase the amount of salt in water, then it will result in an increase in the waters freezing point temperature if you decrease the amount of salt in water, then it will result in a decrease in the waters freezing point temperature if you increase the amount of salt in water, then it will result in having no effect on the waters freezing point temperature

Explanation:

In physics, adding salt to water is known to lower its freezing - point (freezing - point depression). So, the hypothesis that increasing the amount of salt in water results in a decrease in the water's freezing - point temperature is consistent with scientific knowledge.

Answer:

If you increase the amount of salt in water, then it will result in a decrease in the water's freezing point temperature
