At $300 \ K$, $0.06 \ kg$ of an organic solute is dissolved in $1 \ kg$ water. The vapour pressure of the solution at $300 \ K$ is $3.768 \ kPa$. If the vapour pressure of water at that temperature is $3.78 \ kPa$, what is the molar mass of the organic solute (in $g \ mol^{-1}$)? (Assume the solution is dilute)

  • A
    $180$
  • B
    $120$
  • C
    $340$
  • D
    $260$
