Ideal and Non-Ideal solution
(1) Ideal solution : An ideal solution may be defined as the solution

which obeys Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration and
temperature and during the formation of which no change in enthalpy
and no change in volume takes place. So for ideal solutions the conditions
are,
(i) It should obey Raoult’s law, i.e., PA  PA0 X A and PB  PB0 X B .
(ii) Hmixing  0
(iii) Vmixing  0
The solutions in which solvent-solvent and solute-solute interactions are

almost of the same type as solvent-solute interactions, behave nearly as
ideal solutions.
This type of solutions are possible if molecules of solute and solvent are
almost of same size and have identical polarity. For example, solutions of
following pairs almost behave as ideal solutions,
n-Heptane and n-hexane.; Chlorobenzene and bromobenzene.
Benzene and toluene; Ethyl bromide and ethyl iodide.
Ethylene bromide and ethylene chloride; Carbon tetrachloride and silicon

tetrachloride.
For such solutions the vapour pressure of the solution is always

intermediate between the vapour pressures of pure components A and B,
i.e., PA0 and PB0 .

(2) Non-Ideal solution : The solutions which do not obey Raoult’s law
and are accompanied by change in enthalpy and change in volume during
their formation are called non-ideal solutions. so, for non-ideal solutions
the conditions are :
(i) It does not obey Raoult's law. PA  PA0 X A ; PB  PB0 X B
(ii) Hmixing  0
(iii) Vmixing  0
Either component of non-ideal binary solution do not follow Raoult's law.

The non-ideal solutions are further divided into two types :
(a) Solutions showing positive deviations
(b) Solutions showing negative deviations
(a) Solutions showing positive deviation : In this type of deviations,

the partial vapour pressure of each component (say A and B) of solution is
greater than the vapour pressure as expected according to Raoult’s law.
This type of deviations are shown by the solutions in which solvent-
solvent and solute-solute interactions are stronger than solvent-solute
interactions.

Azeotropic mixture
Azeotropes are defined as the mixtures of liquids which boil at constant

temperature like a pure liquid and possess same composition of
components in liquid as well as in vapour phase. Azeotropes are also
called constant boiling mixtures because whole of the azeotropes changes
into vapour state at constant temperature and their components can not
be separated by fractional distillation. Azeotropes are of two types as
described below :
(1) Minimum boiling azeotrope : For the solutions with positive

deviation there is an intermediate composition for which the vapour
pressure of the solution is maximum and hence, boiling point is minimum.
At this composition the solution distills at constant temperature without
change in composition. This type of solutions are called minimum boiling
azeotrope. e.g;

deviations there is an intermediate composition for which the vapour

boiling azeotrope. e.g
