The solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solution and it is generally smaller in quantity.

The freezing point does not depend on the kind of the solute or the size of the solute, it changes when the concentration of the solute changes.

The freezing point of the solution is lower than that of the pure solvent.

Thus, The freezing point of a solution with a nonvolatile solute is lower than that of the pure solvent.

Thus, the above statement is False.
