A solution of two liquids,A and B,shows negative deviation from Raoult's law.This means that
A)the two liquids have a positive heat of solution.
B)molecules of A interact more strongly with B than A molecules interact with A or B molecules interact with B.
C)molecules of A interact strongly with other A-type molecules.
D)molecules of A interact weakly,if at all,with B molecules.
E)molecules of A hinder the strong interaction between B molecules.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Negative deviation from Raoult's law indicates that the intermolecular forces between molecules of A and B are stronger than the intermolecular forces between like molecules (A-A, B-B). Therefore, option B is the most appropriate choice as it correctly explains the reason behind this deviation. Options A, C, D, and E are incorrect.
