Solution

The correct option is A 3C
The concentrations of the two solutions are same.

The depression in the freezing point will be proportional to the number of particles obtained on the dissociation of each solute molecule.

KClK++Cl ..... 2 ions

BaCl2Ba2++2Cl ..... 3 ions
ΔTfBaCl2ΔTfKCl=32

ΔTfBaCl22=32

ΔTfBaCl2=3oC

The freezing point of water is 0 deg C.

The freezing point of BaCl2 solution is 3oC.

Hence, option A is correct.
