Toluene: $22\, mm\, Hg$

An example of a near-ideal solution is:

When acetone is added to chloroform,then a hydrogen bond is formed between them. These liquids show:

Liquids $A$ and $B$ form an ideal solution. Which of the following statements is true?

Liquids $A$ and $B$ form an ideal solution over the entire range of composition. At temperature $T$,an equimolar binary solution of liquids $A$ and $B$ has a vapour pressure of $45 \ Torr$. At the same temperature,a new solution of $A$ and $B$ having mole fractions $x_A$ and $x_B$,respectively,has a vapour pressure of $22.5 \ Torr$. The value of $x_A / x_B$ in the new solution is . . . . . (Given that the vapour pressure of pure liquid $A$ is $20 \ Torr$ at temperature $T$)
