Solution
The correct option is A Unchanged The molal depression constant (Kf) is a attributed property of the solvent. It has nothing to do with the concentration of solute.
If the molality of a dilute solution is doubled, the value of the molal depression constant (Kf) remains unchanged because molal depression is constantly dependent on the nature of the solvent, not on solute.
Hence the correct option is option (a)
