Non-ideal solution and vapour pressure

AI Thread Summary
Positive or negative deviations in non-ideal solutions arise from the strength of interactions between A-A, B-B, and A-B. Scenarios can exist where A-A interactions are stronger than A-B while B-B interactions are weaker than A-A, leading to complex behavior in vapor pressures. It is possible for the total vapor pressure to resemble that of an ideal solution, even if the individual vapor pressures of components A and B show deviations. Such a solution would not be classified as ideal due to the differing interaction strengths. This discussion highlights the nuanced nature of solution classifications based on molecular interactions.

When there is a positive or negative deviation it is due to the interactions between A-A and B-B being weaker or stronger than the interactions between A-B. However, are there any scenarios where the interactions between A-A are stronger than A-B while B-B weaker than A-A or vice versa?

In such a case would it be possible that the overall total vapour pressure of the solution to look like an ideal solution but the individual vapour pressure of A and B having positive and negative deviations?

Yes, and yes.
 
Interesting idea, hadn't thought of this question before.

Yes, and yes.
Hmm in such a case what would the solution be classified as? Because it shouldn't be an ideal solution still right?
 
Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
