$x \ g$ of a solute is dissolved in $y \ g$ of two different liquids $A$ and $B$. The relative lowering of vapor pressure of the solution in $A$ is twice that of the solution in $B$. If the moles of solute are negligible compared to the moles of solvent,which of the following statements regarding the molar masses $M_A$ and $M_B$ of the solvents is correct?

  • A
    $x \ M_A = y \ M_B$
  • B
    $y \ M_A = x \ M_B$
  • C
    $M_A = 2 \ M_B$
  • D
    $2 \ M_A = M_B$
