Since these are aqueous solutions, the solvent is water. The solute is urea, CO(NH

.
Molar mass of urea: (12.01) + 16.00 + 2(14.01 + 2(1.008)) = 60.06 g/mol.

a. 2.577 m indicates that there are 2.577 mol. of solute per 1000 g of solvent and the
calculations are based on that ratio.

The compound which exhibits intermolecular forces most similar to water will be the more
soluble in water (like dissolves like). Recall that water has dispersion, dipole, and H-bonding
forces.

OH would be more soluble since it shares H-bonding with water.

b. NI
