The correct Answer is:
To determine which mixture forms a maximum boiling azeotrope, we need to understand the concept of azeotropes and the behavior of solutions in relation to Raoult's Law. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Azeotropes**: - Azeotropes are mixtures of two or more liquids that boil at a constant temperature and maintain the same composition in both the liquid and vapor phases during boiling. 2. **Types of Azeotropes**: - There are two types of azeotropes: maximum boiling azeotropes and minimum boiling azeotropes. - Maximum boiling azeotropes occur when the solution exhibits negative deviations from Raoult's Law, meaning the vapor pressure of the solution is lower than expected. 3. **Negative Deviations from Raoult's Law**: - In solutions showing negative deviations, the interactions between solute and solvent molecules are stronger than the interactions between the individual solute-solute and solvent-solvent molecules. - This results in a decrease in vapor pressure and an increase in boiling point. 4. **Identifying the Correct Mixture**: - Among the given options, we need to identify which mixture shows negative deviations and forms a maximum boiling azeotrope. - For example, nitric acid (HNO3) and water form a maximum boiling azeotrope because the hydrogen bonding between nitric acid and water is stronger than the individual interactions. 5. **Conclusion**: - The mixture that forms the maximum boiling azeotrope is HNO3 and water, which has a composition of approximately 68% nitric acid and 32% water, boiling at around 393.5 K. ### Final Answer: - The mixture that forms the maximum boiling azeotrope is **HNO3 and water**.
