Which one is not equal to zero for an ideal solution?
A $\Delta H_{mix}$
B $\Delta S_{mix}$
C $\Delta V_{mix}$
D $\Delta P = P_{observed} - P_{Raoult}$

Detailed Solution

For an ideal solution $\Delta H_{mix} = 0$, $\Delta V_{mix} = 0$ and it obeys Raoult's law, so $\Delta P = 0$.
Mixing always increases randomness, so $\Delta S_{mix} \ne 0$ (it is positive).
