Identify the mixture that shows positive deviations from Raoult's Law
- a

Strategy:\n> Positive deviation occurs when intermolecular forces between two different molecules (A-B) are weaker than in the pure components. This is ty\pically observed when mixing a polar molecule with a non-polar one or when breaking existing hydrogen bonds.\n\nStep 1: Evaluate the options\n1. Acetone + Aniline: Forms hydrogen bonds (stronger A-B). Negative Deviation\n2. Chloroform + Benzene: Forms weak hydrogen bonds/interactions. Negative Deviation\n3. Chloroform + Acetone: Strong hydrogen bonding occurs between the of and the of acetone. Negative Deviation\n4. Acetone + : is non-polar and disrupts the dipole-dipole attractions in acetone without forming any significant new bonds. Positive Deviation\n\nConclusion:\nCarbon disulfide () and acetone show positive deviation.\n\n
