A solution of two liquids boils at a temperature more than the boiling point of either of them. Hence, the binary solution shows

Options

A. negative deviation from Raoult’s law
B. positive deviation from Raoult’s law
C. no deviation from Raoult’s law
D. positive or negative deviation from Raoult’s law depending upon the composition

Explanation

To solve the question, we need to analyze the behavior of a binary solution of two liquids that boils at a temperature higher than the boiling point of either liquid. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution:

### Step 1: Understand the Concept of Boiling Point
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. When two liquids are mixed, the boiling point of the resulting solution can be different from the boiling points of the individual components.

**Hint:** Recall that boiling point is influenced by vapor pressure and the interactions between molecules in a solution.
