Detailed Solution

Molality of NaCl =0.1 Molality elevation constant (Kb) =0.51,  Boiling point of NaCl=?  As we know that,    Tb=Kb×molality    Tb=i×Kb×molality (NaCl in aqueous phase broken into Na+ and Cl- ions.So,i=2)             Tb=2×0.51×0.1                            =0.2×0.5                            =0.10 (Tb)solution-(Tb°)water=0.1 Boiling point of pure water is 100°C        (Tb) solution=100+0.1          (Tb)solution=100.1°C

Hence, correct option is: (B) 100.1°C .
