Solution

The correct option is C Ethyl alcohol + Water
An ideal solution may be defined as the solution in which no volume change $(Δ V_{m i x} = 0)$ and no enthalpy change $(Δ H_{m i x} = 0)$ take place on mixing the solute and the solvent in any proportion.
For ideal solution, solvent-solute interaction is equal to solvent-solvent and solute-solute interactions.
Ethyl alcohol + Water is a non-Ideal solution.
