$\\\text{As } \Delta \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{f}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{f}} \times \mathrm{m} \\\\ \text{where, } \\ \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{f}}=$ Freezing point depression constant; \\ $\Delta \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{f}}=$ Depression in freezing point; \\ $\mathrm{m}=$ molality \\\\Now, $\Delta \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{f}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{f}} \times \frac{\mathrm{W}_{2} \times 1000}{\mathrm{M}_{2} \times \mathrm{W}_{1}}$$

$\\\text{where, } \mathrm{W}_{2}=$ mass of solute; \\ $\mathrm{W}_{1}=$ mass of benzene i.e. solvent; \\ $\mathrm{M}_{2}=$ molar mass of solute \\ $\Rightarrow 0.40=5.12 \times \frac{1.0 \times 1000}{\mathrm{M}_{2} \times 50}$ \\$\Rightarrow \mathrm{M}_{2}=256$ \\ Thus, the molar mass of non-electrolyte is 256 .$
