Two moles of a liquid A(P_(A)^(@) = 100" torr") and 3 moles of liquid (B) ( P_(B)^(@)= 150 "torr")form a solution having vapour pressure os 120 torr. Based upoin this observation which of the following is correct ?

Answer»

<P>Interactions between like molecules `GT` those between unlike molecules
Interactions between like molecules `lt` those between unlike molecules
Interaction between like molecules = those betweenunlike molecules
Nothing can be concluded.

Solution :Mole fraction of `A=2/(2+3)=0.40` Mole fraction of `B=3/(2+3)=0.60`
Accordiing to RAOULT's Law
` P=P_(A)^(@)x_(A)+P_(B)^(@)X_(B)`
`P=(100"torr"xx0.4)+(150"torr"xx0.6)`
=(40+90)=130 torr
Scine the OBSERVED vapour pressure (120 torr) is samller that the calculated value of value of vapour pressure, this means that interactions `(A-B)gt(A-A)"and"(B-B)` interactions In other words, solution exhibits nagative DEVIATIONS from Raoult's Law.
