At $25\, ^oC$,benzene and toluene form an ideal solution. What will be the vapor pressure (in $mm \, of \, Hg$) of a solution containing benzene and toluene in a weight ratio of $1:2$? The vapor pressures of pure benzene and pure toluene are $75\, mm \, of \, Hg$ and $30\, mm \, of \, Hg$,respectively.

  • A
