The freezing point of an aqueous solutio...

The freezing point of an aqueous solution of KCN containing `0.1892` mole/kg `H_(2)O` was `-0.704^(@)C`. On adding `0.095` mole of `Hg(CN)_(2)`, the freezing point of the solution was `-0.53^(@)C`. Assuming that the complex is formed according to the equation
`Hg(CN)_(2)+mCN^(-) to Hg(CN)_(m+2)^(m-)`
and also `Hg(CN)_(2)` is the limiting reactant, calculate m .
