प्रश्न
Assertion: When NaCl is added to water a depression in freezing point is observed.
Reason: The lowering of vapour pressure of a solution causes depression in the freezing point.

Assertion and reason both are incorrect statements.
Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
उत्तर
Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
Explanation:
On addition of non-volatile solute (viz, NaCl) to water: NaCl solution is formed. Due to relatively lesser number of water molecules at the surface of liquid, the solution exerts a lower vapour pressure as compared to that of pure water. It is because of this lowering of vapour pressure that a depression in freezing point of water is observed.
