    Which of the following aqueous solutions has the highest boiling point?

    A)  \[0.1\,M\,KN{{O}_{3}}\]

    B)  \[0.1\,M\,N{{a}_{3}}P{{O}_{4}}\]

    C)  \[0.1\,M\,BaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[0.1\,M\,{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We know that for solutions of different solutes of the same strength, the magnitudelligative property is more for that solute which gives more number of particles. As, in aqueous solution, \[KN{{O}_{3}},N{{a}_{3}},P{{O}_{4}},BaC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] will give 2, 4, 3 and 3 particles (ions) respectively. Therefore, \[N{{a}_{3}}P{{O}_{4}}\] solution will show highest boiling point.
