Answer: (D) Unchanged. \textbf{Answer:} (D) Unchanged \textbf{Solution:} The molal depression constant (cryoscopic constant) is a characteristic property of the solvent alone.

  1. A.Doubled
  2. B.Halved
  3. C.Tripled
  4. D.Unchanged

Correct Answer

(D) Unchanged

Solution & Explanation

\textbf{Answer:} (D) Unchanged \textbf{Solution:} The molal depression constant (cryoscopic constant) is a characteristic property of the solvent alone. It does not depend on the amount or concentration of the solute. In , changing the molality changes the freezing-point depression , but itself stays the same. Hence is unchanged when the molality is doubled.
