    B. CCl₄

    Explanation:

    Solubility is determined by the principle, "like dissolves like".

    i. e., if a compound is polar then it will dissolve in a polar compound only, and

    if a compound is non - polar then it will dissolve in a non - polar compound only.

    Hence, from the question,

    Benzene is a non - polar compound, i. e. does not separate out into poles, and hence, it will get dissolved into the CCl₄, as it is too non - polar in nature, according to the above theory of solubility.

    Hence, from the question,

    Benzene will dissolve in CCl₄.
