In any binary azeotropic mixture :-

STATEMENT-1 : At definite temperature, the solubility of a solute is fixed. STATEMENT-2 : When azeotropic mixture is distilled, its composition remains same. STATEMENT-3 : Vapour pressure is a colligative property.

The solution which boil at constant temperature like a pure liquid and possess same composition in liquid as well as vapour state are called azeotropes. The components of azetropes cannot be separated by fractional distillation. Only non-ideal solutions form azeotropes. Solutions with negative deviation form maximum boiling azeotrope and the solutions with positive deviation form minimum boiling azeotrope. The boiling point of an azeotrope is never equal to the boiling points of any of the components of the azeotrope.
