SECTION D
31. a) Positive deviation

b) Ideal solution
c) Let mole fraction of liquid A in solution = XA
Mole fraction of liquid B in solution = XB = (1 – XA)
Given: Vapour pressure of pure liquid A,
pA0 =450mm of Hg
Vapour pressure of pure liquid B,
pB0 = 700mm of Hg
Total vapour pressure, Ptotal= 600mm of Hg
Use the formula of Raoult’s law
600 = (450–700) XA+700
250XA = 100
XA=100/250 = 0.4
Use formula
XB=1 − XA
we get, XB = 1−0.4= 0.6
pA=poA × XA= 450 × 0.4 = 180mm of Hg
pB=poB × XB=700 × 0.6 = 420mm of Hg
Now, in the vapour phase:
Mole fraction of liquid A=180/420 + 180 = 0.30
Mole fraction of liquid B, YB = 1 − YA =1 – 0.30 = 0.70
