Benzene's been under a lot of pressure lately

Chemistry Level 3

39 grams 39\text{ grams} of pure benzene at a certain temperature is taken in a container. The vapor pressure of benzene at this temperature is 0.850 bar 0.850 \text{ bar} . To this, a non-volatile, non-electrolyte solid solute weighing 0.5 grams 0.5 \text{ grams} is added. The vapor pressure of the solution is then 0.845 bar 0.845 \text{ bar}

What is the molecular mass of the solid substance (in grams per mole) ?

Details

  • 1 bar = 0.987 atm \text{1 bar = 0.987 atm}
  • Molecular formula of benzene is C 6 H 6 \text{Molecular formula of benzene is } C_6H_6


The answer is 169.
