If molality of the dilute solution is doubled, the value of molal depression constant () will be:

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

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The molal depression constant (), also known as the cryoscopic constant, is a characteristic property of the solvent only. It depends on the molar mass, boiling/freezing point, and enthalpy of fusion of the solvent. It does not depend on the concentration (molality) of the solute.
