JEE Advanced 2016 · Paper 2, Chemistry question 26

Mixture(s) showing positive deviation from Raoult's law at 35 °C is(are)

Choose one or more options
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: A, B

Positive deviation happens when A-B attractions are weaker than A-A and B-B attractions.

  • CCl₄ + methanol: breaking methanol's H-bonds. Positive.
  • CS₂ + acetone: breaking acetone's dipole-dipole interactions. Positive.
  • Benzene + toluene: nearly ideal.
  • Phenol + aniline: a strong O-H···N bond forms. Negative deviation.

(A), (B)
