Answer / explanation:

How does concentration affect boiling point of a solvent?

The amount by which the boiling point is raised is directly dependent on the concentration of the solute.

The higher the concentration of a solute, the more it is said to be difficult for the solvent molecules to escape into the gas phase.

However, when a non volatile amount of substance is dissolved in a given solvent, the boiling point of the given solvent increases.

The higher the concentration, the more higher the boiling point of a solvent.

It requires a higher temperature for enough solvent molecules to escape , this the boiling point is raised elevatedly
