A solution containing \(10 g / dm ^3\) of urea \(\left( NH _2 CONH _2\right)\) is isotonic with a 10 % solution of a non-volatile solute. The molecular mass of the solute is :

  1. A \(300 g mol ^{-1}\)
  2. B \(600 g mol ^{-1}\)
  3. C \(150 g mol ^{-1}\)
  4. D \(100 g mol ^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(600 g mol ^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For isotonic solutions: \(C_1 = C_2\) Molar mass of urea (\(NH_2CONH_2\)): \(60 g/mol\) Concentration of urea (\(C_1\)): \(\frac{10 g/dm^3}{60 g/mol} = \frac{1}{6} mol/dm^3\) Concentration of solute (\(C_2\)): \(\frac{100 g/dm^3}{M_2 g/mol}\) \(\frac{1}{6} = \frac{100}{M_2}\)…
