Explain the terms ideal and non-ideal solutions in the light of forces of interactions operating between molecules in liquid solutions.
Ideal solutions: They obey Raoult’s law irrespective of the concentration. For an ideal solution,
Non-ideal solutions: They don’t follow Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration
Positive deviations: Vapour pressure is higher than the calculated values
A-B interactions < A-A interactions and B-B interactions
Negative deviations: Vapour pressure is lower than the calculated values
A-B interactions>A-A interactions and B-B interactions
