i had to boil distilled water and record the boiling point, i then had to add a dessertspoon of NaCl repeated 5 times and record corresponding temperatures. The temperature increased by 2 degrees after adding each spoon of salt. Is this endothermic or exothermic??? The more i read the more confused i get

Endotermic/exotermic refers to PROCESS, your question - as posted - doesn't make sense.

OK. Y did the temp of the water increase

You can explain this based on Raoult's law

Do you mean boiling point?
