Question

On mixing 20 mL of acetone with 30 mL of chloroform, the total volume of the solution is :

(A) < 50 mL

(B) = 50 mL

(C) > 50 mL

(D) = 10 mL

Answer 1

Option : (A) < 50 mL

On mixing of acetone and chloroform. shows negative deviation from Roult's law. For such type of solution shows some decrease in volumes.

Therefore,

Final volume will be < 50 mL
