Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Negative deviation occurs when the intermolecular forces between the components of the solution are stronger than the intermolecular forces between the pure components. This results in a decrease in the vapor pressure of the solution compared to what would be predicted by Raoult's Law. Acetone and water form hydrogen bonds with each other, which results in a negative deviation from Raoult's Law.
