Question:

Which of the following represents a binary mixture having the same composition in liquid and vapour phase and boil at a constant temperature?

Options:

Ideal Solution

Saturated solution

Concentrated solution

Azeotropes

Correct Answer:

Azeotropes

Explanation:

Some liquids on mixing, form azeotropes which are binary mixtures having the same composition in liquid and vapour phase and boil at a constant temperature. In such cases, it is not possible to separate the components by fractional distillation. There are two types of azeotropes called minimum boiling azeotrope and maximum boiling azeotrope.
