Freezing point is related to how many ions the compound will produce in solution, and the molality of the solution (It is not provided here), using Van't Hoff relationship for freezing point depression
Tf = Kf*m*i
let us take wach 1 mole
HNO3- = Kf x 1 x 2
Ba(NO3)2 = Kf x 1 x 3
sucrose = Kf x 1 x 1
NH3 = Kf x 1 x 1
So, since a larger Tf means a greater depression (lower freezing point)
Lowest ====> Ba(NO3)2 < HNO3- < NH3 (Weak electrolyte) < Sucrose <==== Highest
