The freezing point of water, H₂O, is 0.000 °C at 1 atmosphere. Ke(water) = 1.86 °C/m In a laboratory experiment, students synthesized a new compound and found that when 13.57 grams of the compound were dissolved in 272.6 grams of water, the solution began to freeze at -1.491 °C. The compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte. What is the molecular weight they determined for this compound? g/mol

The common laboratory solvent water is often used to purify substances dissolved in it. The vapor pressure of water is 23.76 mm
Hg at 25 °C.
In a laboratory experiment, students synthesized a new compound and found that when 153.6 grams of the compound were
dissolved in 292.5 grams of water, the vapor pressure of the solution was 23.12 mm Hg. The compound was also found to be
nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte.
What is the molecular weight of this compound?
(Water = H₂O = 18.02 g/mol)
Molecular weight = |
