Does the value of the Cryoscopic Constant (Kf) change if you dissolve sugar instead of salt in the same amount of water?.

Expert Answer

No. The Cryoscopic Constant is a characteristic property of the solvent (water in this case) and depends only on the solvent's nature, not on the identity of the solute. It stays the same regardless of what substance you dissolve in it.
