Imagine one batch of soup (Batch “A”) is made with 8.19 g/can of salt, according to the recipe, and a second batch of soup (Batch “B”) is made with 8.32 g/can of salt. Explain which batch would be more resistant to frost damage if it is shipped a great distance in winter and explain why

The more concentration of salt, the lower freezing point is going to be.
Batch "B" has greater concentration of salt, so it is have lower freezing point, and it is going to be more resistant to frost damage.

Answer:

Batch "B" more resistant to frost.

Step-by-step explanation:

The depression in freezing point is a colligative property. More the number of solute particles in a solution lesser its freezing point.

In Batch "A" we have taken 8.19 grams of a salt and in batch "B" 8.32 g of salt.

Assuming that same salt is being used the number of particles of salt in batch "B" will be more than batch "A".

Due to this batch "B" will show higher colligative property and will have more depression in freezing point making is more resistant to frost damage.
