Q. Considering the formation, breaking and strength of hydrogen bond, predict which of the following mixtures will show a positive deviation from Raoult s law?

Solutions

Solution:

Mixture of methanol and acetone shows positive deviation from Raoult’s law. In pure methanol, molecules are hydrogen bonded. On adding acetone, its molecules get in between the host molecules and break some of the hydrogen bonds between them.
