Detailed Solution

We know that Mole Fraction=No. of moles of component Total no. of moles of all the components

Therefore,

 Mole fraction of  NaCl = Number of mole of NaCl Total number of mole of solution  

We know that Number of moles= Given massMolar Mass

Therefore,

Total Number of moles of 

100 g water =10018 mol,water =5.5 mol  Mole fraction of NaCl=0.10.1+5.5=0.15.6=0.0178(approx)

Hence, option(b) is correct.
