Ideal and non ideal solution

On the basis of Raoult's law liquid-liquid solution can be classified into ideal solution and non ideal solution.

What are ideal solution?

  • Ideal solution can be define as the type solution which obey Raoult's law over entire range of concentration are known as Ideal solution.
  • In Ideal solution total pressure over solution in the container will be equal to the sum of the partial pressure of components of the solution.

p1 = pi1n2    p2 = pi2n2
ptotal = pi1 + (pi2 - pi1) n2
Component A + Component B = Solution AB
  • The force of attraction between ion on the Solution A-B are exact by same as force of attraction between A-A and B-B. [FA-A = FB-B = FA-B].

  • On mixing there is no enthalpy and volume change.

ΔHmix = 0  Î”Vmix = 0

Exmple of ideal solution: n-Hexane and n-Heptane Bromoethane and chloroethane and Benzene and

Tolesene.


What are non-ideal solution?

  • Non ideal solution is a type of solution which does not obey Raoult's law over entire range of concentration, then it is called Non-ideal solution.
  • In Non-ideal solution total pressure over solution in the container will be not equal to the sum of the partial pressure of components of the solution.
p1  pi1n2    p2  pi2n2
ptotal  pi1 + (pi2 - pi1) n2
Component A + Component B = Solution AB
  • The force of attraction between ion on the Solution A-B are not exact by same as force of attraction between A-A and B-B. [FA-A ≠ FB-B  FA-B].


  • Enthalpy and volume  both are change on mixing.
ΔHmix 
 0  Î”Vmix  0

Example of non-ideal solution: H2O and ethanol, H2O and CH3COOH, CHCL3 and CCL4
