Question: ( a ) . Briefly explain the following terms: i . Ideal and non - ideal solutions ii . Raoult's law ( b ) .

(a). Briefly explain the following terms:
i. Ideal and non-ideal solutions
ii. Raoult's law
(b). Clearly compare the departure of electrolytes and non-electrolytes from ideal behavior.
(c). Benzene and toluene form nearly ideal solutions. Consider a solution of 1.0mol benzene and 3.0mol toluene. At 20C the vapour pressures of pure benzene and toluene are 9.9kPa and 2.9kPa, respectively. The solution is boiled by reducing the external pressure below the vapour pressure.
Calculate the:
i. pressure when boiling begins,
ii. composition of each component in the vapour,
iii. vapour pressure when only a few drops of liquid remain.
Assume that the rate of vaporization is low enough for the temperature to remain constant at 20C.
 (a). Briefly explain the following terms: i. Ideal and non-ideal solutions
