the freezing point of ethanol (C2H5OH) is -114.6C. the molal freezing point depression constant for ethanol is 2.00C/m. what is the freezing point (C) of a solution prepared by dissolving 50.0 g of glycerin (C3H8O3, A nonelectrolyte) in 200 g of ethanol.

i tried to solve it on my own but im confused about the last part, this i what i have so far..

moles of glycerin= 50.0/92.10=0.54
molality=0.54/0.200=2.7


im a little confused about the numbers im supposed to use for the final answer...
final answer is -120.0 how do i get there?

If the freezing point depression is 2.0°C / m, and your concentration is 2.7 m ...?
