Answer:
Option (d) is correct.
 
Given:
 
ΔTf = 1.2 ºC
 
Wsolvent = 50 gm
 
Wsolute = 5 gm
 
Kf = 1.85 ºC gm/mol
 
Using the formula od depression in freezing point, molecular weight of the subastance can be calculated as,
 
straight M subscript 2 space equals space fraction numerator straight K subscript straight f cross times straight W subscript solute cross times 1000 over denominator increment straight T subscript straight f space cross times space straight W subscript solvent end fraction

space space space space space space equals fraction numerator 1.85 cross times 5 cross times 1000 over denominator 1.2 cross times 50 end fraction

straight M subscript 2 space equals space 154.166

straight M subscript 2 space almost equal to space 154.2 space straight g divided by mol
 
Molecular weight of the subastance is 154.2 g/mol
