The boiling point of benzene, C6H6 , is 80.100 °C at 1 atmosphere. Kb (benzene)= 2.53C/m. In a laboratory experiment, students synthesized a new compound and found that when 14.93 grams of the compound were dissolved in 252.2 grams of benzene, the solution began to boil at 80.619 °C. The compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte. What is the molecular weight they determined for this compound
