Freezing point decrease is a colligative property.

Freezing point decrease is given by the formula:

ΔfT = Kf * i * m

m = # moles solute / Kg solvent

# moles solute = 4 mol

Kg solvent = 1 Kg

=> m = 4 mole / 1 Kg = 4m

=> ΔTf = 1.86 °C / m * 2 * 4 m =  14.88 °C


Answer: 14.88°C
14.88°C the answer would be A.
