Introduction- Ideal solution
 Ideal gas vs Ideal solution
 For liquids, one cannot extrapolate (ideal gas law) to state that there are
no intermolecular interactions
 Because presence of intermolecular forces makes condensed phase
(liquid/solid) to exist
 On macroscopic level, a solution is ideal when all mixing rules are same
as for an ideal gas, i.e., Δ𝑣𝑚𝑖𝑥 𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑎𝑙 = 0 & Δℎ𝑚𝑖𝑥 𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑎𝑙 = 0
 Although concept of an ideal solution developed in analogy to an ideal
gas, there are a few following interesting differences
 A pure gas can be non-ideal gas but a pure liquid cannot be non-ideal
solution because
 all intermolecular forces in a pure liquid are same
 Increase in pressure leads to deviation from ideal gas behavior
whereas deviation from ideal solution are caused due to changes in
composition because
 non-ideal behavior results primarily from chemical differences of species in a
mixture even at low pressures
