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?

Given,

Applying,

Hence, molar mass of the solid substance = 170 g/mol
