Solution
The correct option is A0.5MAl2(SO4)3
Tf=iKfm
Depression in freezing point will be maximum for the compound having maximum van't Hoff factor i which is maximum for Al2(SO4)3 which furnishes 5 ions in the solution, therefore i=5 hence, it will have maximum depression in freezing point in case of the same concentration.
Here, in case of Al2SO4 and NaCl, Al2SO4 have higher i×C value.
