Dry air was drawn through bulbs containing pure water,then through bulbs containing a solution of $600 \ g$ of a non-electrolyte in $360 \ g$ of water at the same temperature,and finally through a tube in which dried $CaCl_2$ was placed. The solution bulb gained $1.5 \ g$ and the dried $CaCl_2$ gained $2 \ g$. The molecular mass of the solute is:

$A$ 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.
