Solution

The correct option is A 0.6
The mole fraction of benzene in a solution containing 39% by mass in an organic solvent of molecular mass 122 is :

nbnb+no=61/786178+39122=0.6

Here b represents benzene and o represents organic solvent.
The molar mass of benzene is 78 g/mol.

The percent by mass of the organic solvent is 10039=61 %

Hence the correct option is B.
