NEETChemistrySolutions
Vapour pressures of pure acetone and chloroform at 328 K are 741.8 mm Hg and 632.8 mm Hg respectively. Assuming that they form ideal solution over the entire range of composition, plot p total , p chloroform , and p acetone as a function of x acetone . The experimental data observed for different compositions of mixture is: Indicate whether it has positive deviation or negative deviation from the ideal solution.
Options
- AThe solution shows negative deviation from Raoult's law.
- BThe solution shows positive deviation from Raoult's law.
- CThe solution shows both positive and negative deviation from Raoult's law.
- DThe solution strictly follows Raoult's law, showing no deviation
Correct answer
A. The solution shows negative deviation from Raoult's law.
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (A) The solution shows negative deviation from Raoult's law.
