| SL. | Ideal solution | Non ideal solution |
| 1. | An ideal solution has an infinite dilution | non-ideal solution has a finite dilution. |
| 2. | An ideal solution has no interaction between the solute and solvent molecules. | a non-ideal solution solute and solvent molecules interact. |
| 3. | An ideal solution obeys Raoult’s law. | a non-ideal solution does not obey Raoult’s law. |
| 4. | An ideal solution has no effect on the vapor pressure of the solvent. | non-ideal solution affects the vapor pressure of the solvent. |
| 5. | An ideal solution has no effect on the solubility of a solute. | a non-ideal solution affects the solubility of the solute |
