Correct answer: D

  1. Use isotonic condition

For isotonic solutions at the same temperature: π=CRT\pi = C R Tπ=CRT So, if both are isotonic in the same solvent and both solutes are non-electrolytes, C1=C2C_1 = C_2C1​=C2​ where CCC is molarity.

  1. Interpret percentage solutions using density

Given density of both solutions is 1.0 g cm−31.0\ \text{g cm}^{-3}1.0 g cm−3, so: 100 cm3=100 mL100\ \text{cm}^3 = 100\ \text{mL}100 cm3=100 mL has mass 100 g100\ \text{g}100 g.

Thus:

  • A 5.25%5.25\%5.25% solution contains 5.25 g5.25\ \text{g}5.25 g solute in 100 mL100\ \text{mL}100 mL solution.
  • A 1.5%1.5\%1.5% urea solution contains 1.5 g1.5\ \text{g}1.5 g urea in 100 mL100\ \text{mL}100 mL solution.
  1. Find molarity of urea solution

Moles of urea in 100 mL100\ \text{mL}100 mL: n=1.560=0.025 moln=\frac{1.5}{60}=0.025\ \text{mol}n=601.5​=0.025 mol

Volume of solution: 100 mL=0.1 L100\ \text{mL}=0.1\ \text{L}100 mL=0.1 L

So molarity of urea solution is: M=0.0250.1=0.25 mol L−1M=\frac{0.025}{0.1}=0.25\ \text{mol L}^{-1}M=0.10.025​=0.25 mol L−1

  1. Apply isotonic condition to unknown solution

The unknown solution is also 0.25 M0.25\ \text{M}0.25 M.

In 100 mL100\ \text{mL}100 mL (=0.1 L=0.1\ \text{L}=0.1 L), moles of unknown solute are: n=0.25×0.1=0.025 moln=0.25\times 0.1=0.025\ \text{mol}n=0.25×0.1=0.025 mol

Given mass of unknown solute in 100 mL100\ \text{mL}100 mL is 5.25 g5.25\ \text{g}5.25 g.

Therefore molar mass is: Molar mass=5.250.025=210 g mol−1\text{Molar mass} = \frac{5.25}{0.025}=210\ \text{g mol}^{-1}Molar mass=0.0255.25​=210 g mol−1

  1. Check options

210 g mol−1210\ \text{g mol}^{-1}210 g mol−1 matches Option D.

Final Answer:

210 g mol−1\boxed{210\ \text{g mol}^{-1}}210 g mol−1​
