Detailed Solution

We know that

Relative lowering of vapour pressure=PA=ixAPA0

where i = Van't Hoff Factor

         xA = concentration

         PA0= vapour pressure

As we can see concentration is same for all here, so now we have to look at i(van’t hoff factor)

So

For 0.1 m ureai=1(non-electrolyte)

      0.1 m  NaCli=2

      0.1 m MgCl2i=3       

      0.1 m  Al2SO43, i=5

 Since vapour pressure is directly proportional to i.

Therefore, 0.1 m  Al2SO43 has maximum vapour pressure.

Hence, option(d) is correct.
