Solution

The correct option is A 0.103 m
Freezing point depression of a solution is given by,
Tf=Kf×m
where,
Tf is the depression in freezing point.
Kf is molal depression constant.
m is molality of solution.
Freezing point of the pure water is 0
Thus, the depression in freezing point of water is 0.192C
Molality=TfKf
Molality=0.1921.86=0.103 m
