The correct answer is: 14.49
Mole fraction of urea in its solution

=12601260+140.418=0.025

Mole fraction of glucose

=1818018180+178.218=0.01

Mole fraction of glucose is less so vapour pressure above the glucose solution will be higher than the pressure above urea solution, so some H2O molecules will transfer from glucose to urea side in order to make the solutions of equal mole fraction to attain equilibrium, let x moles H2O transferred

  0.20.2+7.8+x=0.10.1+9.9-xx=4

Now mass of glucose solution

 196.2-4×18=124.2

wt% of glucose =18124.2×100=14.49
