An azeotropic solution of two liquids has boiling point lower than either of them when it

A.Shows a negative deviation from Raoult's Law
B.Shows no deviation from Raoult's Law
C.Shows positive deviation from Raoult's Law✓ Correct
D.Is saturated
Explanation

The solutions which shows a positive deviation from Raoult's Law form minimum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition. And, the solution which shows negative deviation from Raoult's Law form maximum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition. Hence, the correct answer is option (c). 60. The solution which shows large positive deviation from Raoult’s law forms: (a) maximum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition (b) Maximum freezing azeotrope at a specific composition (c) minimum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition (d) minimum freezing azeotrope at a specific composition Th
