Question:

On mixing liquid X and liquid Y, the volume of the resulting solution decreases. What type of deviation from Raoult's law is shown by the resulting solution?

Solution:

(i) Negative deviation of Raoult's law occurred. There is an elevation of boiling point occurs, i.e., Temperature of the solution increase. (ii) When blood cell is placed in water (hypotonic solution), water penetrates the blood cell, causing it to bulge and then disrupt.
