Solution

The correct option is B 60
Elevation is boiling point is given as:

ΔTb=Kb×m m= molality

ΔTb=Kb×W2W1×1000M2
W2=Mass of solute,
W1=Mass of solvent,
M2=Molar mass of solute

M2=Kb×W2×1000W1×ΔTb as, Kb=5.2 per 100g of water

M2=5.2×6×1000100×0.52×10 Kb=0.52 per kg of water

M2=60 .

Hence, the correct option is B
