Explanation:

The elevation of the boiling point of a solution depends on the concentration of solute particles in the solution. The more the number of solute particles in the solution, the higher the elevation in boiling point.

Elevation in boiling point ∝ i × M

The given compounds and their respective aqueous solutions are

\(\begin{array}{lc|c} & \text { Solute } & \mathrm{i} \\ \hline \text { A. } & \mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_6 & 1 \\ \text { B. } & \mathrm{NaCl} & 2 \\ \text { C. } & \mathrm{MgCl}_2 & 3 \\ \text { D. } & \mathrm{AlCl}_3 & 4 \\ \text { E. } & \mathrm{Al}_2\left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)_3 & 5 \end{array}\)

Order of elevation in boiling point

E > D > C > B > A
