In an experiment,$1 \ g$ of a non-volatile solute was dissolved in $100 \ g$ of acetone (molar mass $= 58 \ g/mol$) at $298 \ K$. The vapour pressure of the solution was found to be $192.5 \ mm \ Hg$. The molecular weight of the solute is (vapour pressure of pure acetone $= 195 \ mm \ Hg$). (in $.24$)
