The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

PLAN When an ideal solution is formed process is spontaneous thus
According to Raoult's law, for an ideal solution
$\, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, ?H = 0, ? V_{mm} = 0$
From the relation
$ \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, ?G = ?H - T?S$
Since, $\, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, ?H = 0$
$\therefore \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, ?G = - ve$
i.e. less than zero, and $?S_{sys} = + ve$
i.e. more than zero.

Solutions

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.

For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.

Types of Solutions:

The solutions can be classified into three types:

  • Solid Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Solid-state.
  • Liquid Solutions- In these solutions, the solvent is in a Liquid state.
  • Gaseous Solutions - In these solutions, the solvent is in a Gaseous state.

On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:

  1. Unsaturated Solution- A solution in which more solute can be dissolved without raising the temperature of the solution is known as an unsaturated solution.
  2. Saturated Solution- A solution in which no solute can be dissolved after reaching a certain amount of temperature is known as an unsaturated saturated solution.
  3. Supersaturated Solution- A solution that contains more solute than the maximum amount at a certain temperature is known as a supersaturated solution.
