The correct answer is: 100

Two solutions having same osmotic pressure at a given temperature are called isotonic solutions. When such solutions are separated.

π=CRT

π=Osmotic pressure

C=Concentration in molarity

R=Universal gas constant

T=Temperature

As the solutions are isotonic

πurea=πXCurea=CX

WureaMurea×1000Vurea=WXMX×1000VX660×1000Vurea=10MX×1000VXMX=100g

Hence, the molecular weight of the non-electrolytic solute X is 100 gmol-1
