    Directions : In the following question more than one of the answers given may be correct. Select the correct answer and mark it according to the code:

    A solution containing components A and B exhibits positive deviation from Raoult?s law only when (1) \[\Delta {{V}_{mixing}}=+ve\] (2) \[\Delta {{H}_{mixing}}=-ve\] (3)\[A-B\]attraction forces\[<A-A\]and\[B-B\] attraction forces. (4)\[A-B\]attraction forces\[>A-A\]and\[B-B\] attraction forces.

    A)  1, 2 and 3 are correct.

    B)  1 and 2 are correct.

    C)  2 and 4 are correct.

    D)  1 and 3 are correct.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     When the\[AB\]interaction are weaker than the\[AA\]and\[BB\]interaction, then solution exhibits positive deviation from Raoult?s law. For such solutions AH mixing is positive because energy is required to break\[AA\] or\[BB\] attractive forces. On mixing, because the magnitude of intermolecular forces in solution decreases, thus the molecules will be loosely held, hence volume increases ie,\[\Delta {{V}_{mixing}}=+ve\]
