Molal freezing point constant of water is:

Correct answer: A. 1.86

  • A. 1.86
  • B. 2.86
  • C. 11.86
  • D. 0.52

Explanation

The molal freezing point depression constant for H2O, Kf , is given as 1.86 °C kg/mole. Thus a 1.00 m aqueous solution freezes at -1.86 °C instead of 0.00 °C which is the normal freezing point for water.
