Answer 2, because when you add salt to something, it cools faster (ex. When you add salt to an ice chest so that it stays cold) and it takes longer to boil (ex. When you boil salt out of ocean water so that its safe to drink) therefore, the more NaCl in the solution, the more it will exibit these properties
