Question

on mixing 10 ml of acetone with 40 ml of chloroform the total volume of the solution is

Answer 1

e mixture is.

Because of hydrogen bonding there will be an increase in forces of attraction in the solution eventually the molecules will be held more tightly. Therefore there will be decrease in volume of solution on mixing.

Answer 2

Hey dear,

● Answer -
less than 50 ml

● Solution -
- Acetone and chloroform form non-ideal solution.
- Due due hydrogen bonding, stronger intermolecular forces between different molecules than that between similar molecules.
- Expected total volume 40+10 = 50 ml.
- As the solution deviates from Rault's law, total volume is less than 50 ml.

Hope this helps...
