KCET2011ChemistrySolutions
A solution of two liquids boils at a temperature more than the boiling point of either of them. Hence, the binary solution shows
Options
- Anegative deviation from Raoult's law
- Bpositive deviation from Raoult's law
- Cno deviation from Raoult's law
- Dpositive or negative deviation from Raoult's law depending upon the composition
Correct answer
A. negative deviation from Raoult's law
Step-by-step solution
Solutions boils at relatively higher temperature, vapour pressure of solution is less. Hence, it shows negative deviation from Raoult's law.
