Answer:

Benzene is non-polar, therefore it is insoluble in water(polar solvent) . Whereas it is soluble in Toulene which is non-polar solvent i. e non polar compounds are soluble in non - polar solvents and polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents.

In short just remember that "like dissolves like"
