 a. higher salt concentration increases the electrostatic repulsions between phosphates
  b. the base stacking is more effective in high salt
  c. hydrogen bonding between complementary bases in enhanced at high salt
  d. higher salt concentration decreases the electrostatic repulsions between phosphates
