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

  • A
    $58$
  • B
    $180$
  • C
    $170$
  • D
    $145$
