Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(0.2 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The freezing point depression is given by the formula \(\Delta T_f = i \times K_f \times m\), where \(i\) is the van't Hoff factor, \(K_f\) is the cryoscopic constant, and \(m\) is the molality. Since \(K_f\) is constant for a given solvent and the molarity \(M\) is given as…
