Solution

The correct option is C Al2(SO4)3
We know that, depression of freezing point
ΔTf=i×Kf×mSo, ΔTfi
i=van't Hoff factor
salt i
KCl 2
C6H12O6 1
Al2(SO4)3 5
K2SO4 3

Hence, i is maximum i.e. 5 for Al2(SO4)3
Hence depression in freezing will be highest for Al2(SO4)3, as molality is constant for all the solutions given.
