The common laboratory solvent ethanol is often used to purifysubstances dissolved in it. The vapor pressure of ethanol,CH3CH2OH, is 54.68 mm Hg at 25 °C. In a laboratory experiment,students synthesized a new compound and found that when 30.10 gramsof the compound was dissolved in 269.1 grams of ethanol, the vaporpressure of the solution was 53.72 mm Hg. The compound was alsofound to be nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte. What is themolecular weight of this compound? ethanol = CH3CH2OH = 46.07g/mol. what is the molar weight?
