Answer: A. It will deviate positively.

Explanation: Francois Marie Raoult was a French Chemist, credited with Raoult Law, which states that the vapour pressure of a solution is directly proportional to the sum of the vapour pressure of its volatile components, as long as it was ok obtained by the product of the mole fraction of the component Solution.

It will deviate positively because the individual components have slightly better favorable interaction / vapour pressure in their individual liquid.
