The difference between the boiling point and freezing point of an aqueous solution of urea containing $10.0 \ kg$ of water is $100.2372 \ ^oC$. How many grams of urea are dissolved in the solution? (Given: $K_b = 0.513 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$,$K_f = 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$)

Properties such as boiling point,freezing point,and vapour pressure of a pure solvent change when solute molecules are added to get a homogeneous solution. These are called colligative properties. Applications of colligative properties are very useful in day-to-day life. One of its examples is the use of an ethylene glycol and water mixture as an anti-freezing liquid in the radiator of automobiles.

For a solution formed by mixing liquids $L$ and $M$,the vapour pressure of $L$ plotted against the mole fraction of $M$ in solution is shown in the following figure. Here $x_L$ and $x_M$ represent mole fractions of $L$ and $M$,respectively,in the solution. The correct statement$(s)$ applicable to this system is(are)
$A$. Attractive intermolecular interactions between $L-L$ in pure liquid $L$ and $M-M$ in pure liquid $M$ are stronger than those between $L-M$ when mixed in solution
$B$. The point $Z$ represents vapour pressure of pure liquid $M$ and Raoult's law is obeyed when $x_L \rightarrow 0$
