When a solution is made from 24.2 g of an unknown nonelectrolyte dissolved in 150.0 g of solvent, the solution freezes at -8.66 °C. The freezing point of the pure solvent and its K, are -3.87 °C and 3.62 °C/m, respectively. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown nonelectrolyte in g/mol. Report your answer to TWO places past the decimal.
