Question

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

Options
  1. a

    (CH3)2CO+C6H5NH2(\mathrm{CH_3})_2\mathrm{CO} + \mathrm{C_6H_5NH_2}

  2. b

    CHCl3+C6H6\mathrm{CHCl_3} + \mathrm{C_6H_6}

  3. c

    CHCl3+(CH3)2CO\mathrm{CHCl_3} + (\mathrm{CH_3})_2\mathrm{CO}

  4. d

    (CH3)2CO+CS2(\mathrm{CH_3})_2\mathrm{CO} + \mathrm{CS_2}

Correct Answerd

(CH3)2CO+CS2(\mathrm{CH_3})_2\mathrm{CO} + \mathrm{CS_2}

Detailed Solution

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). \rightarrow Negative Deviation\n2. Chloroform + Benzene: Forms weak hydrogen bonds/interactions. \rightarrow Negative Deviation\n3. Chloroform + Acetone: Strong hydrogen bonding occurs between the HH of \ceCHCl3\ce{CHCl3} and the OO of acetone. \rightarrow Negative Deviation\n4. Acetone + \ceCS2\ce{CS2}: \ceCS2\ce{CS2} is non-polar and disrupts the dipole-dipole attractions in acetone without forming any significant new bonds. \rightarrow Positive Deviation\n\nConclusion:\nCarbon disulfide (\ceCS2\ce{CS2}) and acetone show positive deviation.\n\ntextAnswer:(4)\boxed{\\text{Answer: (4)}}
