'i' is the van't Hoff factor. More is the number of ions, more is the value of i, hence greater will be the boiling point

(a) no. of particles in 0.1 M KNO3:

  KNO3K++NO3=2

(b) no.of particles in 0.1 M Na3PO4:

 Na3PO43Na++PO43-=

(c) no. of particles in 0.1 M BaCl2:

 BaCl2Ba2++2Cl=3 

(d) no. of particles in 0.1 M K2SO4:

  K2SO42K++SO42-=3
