I. The volume will be less than 100 ml. The intermolecular forces
between phenol and aniline is stronger than phenol-phenol and aniline-
aniline which results in decrease in volume.

complex, is known as activation energy (Ea). Activation energy is the
least possible energy required to start a chemical reaction. The
activation energy doesn’t change with change in temperature.
