Solution

The correct option is B 0.1 M MgCl2
0.1 M MgCl2 solution has the highest boiling point.
Elevation in the boiling point is a colligative property and depends on the number of solute particles.
1 mole of MgCl2 on dissociation in water gives 3 moles of ions.
MgCl2Mg2++2Cl
This is maximum number of particles as compared to other solutes.
This results in maximum elevation in the boiling point for the solution and highest boiling point.
Note: 1 mole each of HClO4,NH4OH,KOH and LiNO3 on dissociation in water gives 2 moles of ions.
