A gas is confined in a graduated cylinder enclosed by a movable piston. When the temperature of the room is 24.4 °C , the volume of the gas at atmospheric pressure is found to be 39.4 mL. The cylinder is them immersed in a bath containing a liquid and solid benzene. The piston moves to maintain constant atmospheric pressure. The volume of the gas at the freezing point is 39.6 mL. Calculate the freezing point of benzene.
