Two beaker are placed in a sealed flask. Beaker A initially contained 0.15 mol of naphthalene (non-volatile) in 117 g of benzene and beaker B initially contained 31 g of an unknown compound (non-volatile, non-electrolytic) in 117 g of benzene. At equilibrium, beaker A is found to have lost 7.8 g of weight. Assume ideal behaviour of both solutions to answer the following question.
