Q.

A liquid mixture contains 10 moles of A (PAo=200 mmHg) and 10 moles of B (PBo=100 mmHg). The vapour pressure over the liquid mixture is 160 mmHg. Which is the correct statement

1 ΔGmix=+ve  
2 ΔVmix=-ve  
3 ΔSsurrounding=+ve  
4 ΔSsurrounding=-ve  

Ans.

(4)

Psolution=160

Solution has positive deviation from Raoult's law.

Ptotal=200×0.5+100×0.5=150

ΔGmix<0,    ΔVmix>0,    ΔHmix>0

ΔSsurr<0
