Which statement explains why an increase in molality increases the boiling point of a solution? The addition of solute decreases the solvent’s vapor pressure. A higher temperature must then be applied to overcome the change. The addition of solute increases the solvent’s vapor pressure. A higher temperature must then be applied to overcome the change. The addition of solute increases the solvent’s ability to boil. The solute’s molecules repel the solvent’s molecules, giving them higher binding energy and hence the need for higher temperature.

Explanation:

- decrease the number of plants and animals living in the water.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
