Activity co-efficient is a measure of the____________________?

Correct answer: A. Departure from ideal solution behaviour

  • A. Departure from ideal solution behaviour
  • B. Departure of gas phase from ideal gas law
  • C. Vapour pressure of liquid
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The activity coefficient compares a component's actual activity with its ideal-solution value, so it measures departure from ideal solution behaviour. Departure of a gas from ideality is instead described by the fugacity coefficient.
