Answer

This is a hands-on demonstration. Try this with your friends, and be prepared to explain the physics of the demonstration to them. You'll find that the solution of salt and water has a higher boiling point. In fact, the boiling point of water is raised whenever a soluble, non-volatile substance (e.g., salt, sugar, antifreeze) is added to it.
