Question

TuteeHUB · Accepted Answer

In case of minimum boiling azeotropes, the boiling point of the azeotrope is higher than the boiling point of either of the pure components

TuteeHUB · Answer

An azeotrope does not exhibit the same concentration in the vapour phase and the liquid phase

TuteeHUB · Answer

Azeotropic mixtures cannot be separated into their constituents by fractional distillation

TuteeHUB · Answer

In case of minimum boiling azeotropes, the boiling point of the azeotrope is higher than the boiling point of either of the pure components
