A student prepared several aqueous sodium chloride (NaCl) solutions to observe boiling point elevation at various molal concentrations, however, several errors were made throughout the procedure. Determine whether these errors would cause the observed boiling point to be increased or decreased relative to the expected boiling point, based on the procedure, or have no effect on the experimental results.

* The flask is washed with water but not thoroughly dried before preparing the solution

* The mass of NaCl used to prepare the solution is 5.400 grams instead of 4.400 grams

* Some of the prepared solution splashes out of the flask prior to observation of the boiling point

* When making the salt solution, 55.0 milliliters of water is added instead of 50.0 milliliters

The flask is washed with water but not thoroughly dried before preparing the solution  - decrease

The mass of NaCl used to prepare the solution is 5.400 grams instead of 4.400 grams

-increase

Some of the prepared solution splashes out of the flask prior to observation of the boiling point- have no effect

When making the salt solution, 55.0 milliliters of water is added instead of 50.0 milliliters- decrease

Explanation:

If the flask is washed but not dried, then the solution will be further diluted than expected. As a result of this further dilution, the observed boiling point will be less than the expected boiling point because the boiling point depends on the solution's concentration.

If more solute is added than expected, the concentration of the solution is increased and the boiling point also increases above the expected boiling point due to the increase in amount of solute present.

If some of the solution splashes out of the flask prior to boiling, the boiling point is not affected because the concentration of the solution was not altered. The boiling point only changes when the concentration of the solution is changed.

If 55 ml of water is added instead of 50 ml, the solution is now more dilute than expected thereby reducing the concentration of the solution and the boiling point. Remember that, as the concentration of the solution decreases, the boiling point decreases accordingly.
