Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Water potential refers to the potential energy present in water molecules in free state. In pure state water potential of pure water is maximum and its value is zero. On adding solutes free energy of water decreases, thus water potential decreases. Water potential of a solution is always negative and it decreases on addition of solute.
