$A$ solution containing $30 \, g$ of non-volatile solute in exactly $90 \, g$ water has a vapour pressure of $21.85 \, mm \, Hg$ at $25 \, ^oC$. Further $18 \, g$ of water is then added to the solution. The resulting solution has a vapour pressure of $22.15 \, mm \, Hg$ at $25 \, ^oC$. Calculate the molecular weight of the solute.
