The common laboratory solvent water is often used to purify substances dissolved in it. The vapor pressure of water is 23.76 mm Hg at 25 °C. In a laboratory experiment, students synthesized a new compound and found that when 16.06 grams of the compound were dissolved in 292.4 grams of water, the vapor pressure of the solution was 23.38 mm Hg. The compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte. What is the molecular weight of this compound? (Water = H₂O 18.02 g/mol) Molecular weight = 15.79 g/mol

Camphor is a white solid that melts at 179.50°C. It has been used to determine the molecular weights of organic compounds because of its unusually large freezing-point-depression constant (39.7°C/m), which allows ordinary thermometers to be used. The organic compound is dissolved in camphor, and then the melting point of the solution is determined. If 1.08 g of an unknown compound is dissolved in 73.6 g camphor, the freezing point is found to be 177.09°C. What is the molecular weight of the unknown compound?
