Question

Which of the following liquid pairs will exhibit a pronounced positive deviation from Raoult's law when mixed?

Answer: D

💡 Solution & Explanation

Positive deviations occur when A-B interactions are weaker than pure A-A/B-B interactions. Mixing water with ethanol disrupts the strong hydrogen bonding network of pure water, increasing the overall escaping tendency of the molecules.
