When a material (solute) is dissolved in a liquid (solvent), the physical properties of the solvent change.
In the presence of a semipermeable membrane that allows the solvent to pass through but retains the solute, osmotic pressure is generated. This phenomenon results in a reduction of the effective pressure in the solvent.
Additionally, the dissolution affects the liquid's phase transition temperatures. Specifically, it lowers the freezing point and raises the boiling point, altering its thermal behavior.

Boiling Point Elevation by Solution
Equation 
Another effect that varies in solutions is the boiling point. When a solvent boils at a temperature T and pressure p in its pure state, the chemical potential of the liquid phase must equal the chemical potential of the vapor phase.
However, due to the reduction in vapor pressure caused by the presence of a solute, an increase in temperature is required to achieve this equilibrium. As a result, the boiling point of a solution is higher than that of the pure solvent.
Therefore, the boiling temperature with solute (T_{bs}), together with the boiling temperature (T_b), the number of ions (N_s), the number of particles (N), the calor latente molar del cambio de fase liquido vapor (l_V), and the universal gas constant (R), is equal to:

Freezing Point Reduction by Solution
Equation 
Another effect that varies in solutions is the freezing point. When a solvent freezes at a temperature T and pressure p in its pure state, the chemical potential of the solid phase must equal that of the liquid phase.
Due to the reduction in vapor pressure caused by the presence of a solute, the temperature must be lowered to achieve this equilibrium. As a result, the freezing point of the solvent decreases in a solution.
Thus, the freezing temperature with solute (T_{fs}), together with the freezing temperature (T_f), the number of ions (N_s), the number of particles (N), the calor latente molar del cambio de fase solido liquido (l_S), and the universal gas constant (R), is equal to:

se tiene que la temperatura de ebullición de la solución
s_S (T_s-T_b)= s_L (T_s-T_b)-\displaystyle\frac{N_s}{N}RT_s
Con
l_S = T_f ( s_L - s_S ) |
se tiene que con
T_{fs} = T_f - \displaystyle\frac{ N_s }{ N }\displaystyle\frac{ R T_f ^2}{ l_S } |
