The vapour pressure of pure benzene at a certain temperature is 0.850 bar. A non-volatile, non-electrolyte solid weighing 0.5 g when added to 39.0 g of benzene (molar mass 78 g mol -1 ). Vapour pressure of the solution, then, is 0.845 bar.

Question

The vapour pressure of pure benzene at a certain temperature is 0.850 bar. A non-volatile, non-electrolyte solid weighing 0.5 g when added to 39.0 g of benzene (molar mass 78 g mol -1 ). Vapour pressure of the solution, then, is 0.845 bar. What is the molar mass of the solid substance?
