The formation of a solution from two components can be considered as:

(i) Pure solvent → separated solvent molecules, ∆H1
(ii) Pure solute → separated solute molecules, ∆H2
(iii) Separated solvent and solute molecules → solution, ∆H3


The solution so formed will be ideal if:

1. ∆HSoln = ∆H1 + ∆H2 + ∆H3

2. ∆HSoln = ∆H1 + ∆H2 – ∆H3

3. ∆HSoln = ∆H1 – ∆H2 – ∆H3

4. ∆HSoln = ∆H3 – ∆H1 – ∆H2
