Objective:-
-Sketch the known composition which consist of the mixture in the liquid and vapor
phases to determination less boiling point for mixture.
Theory:-
An azeotropes or a constant boiling point mixture is a mixture of two or more liquids
whose proportions cannot be altered or changed by simple distillation. This happens
because when an azeotrope is boiled, the vapour has the same proportions of
constituents as the unboiled mixture. Because their composition is unchanged by
distillation, azeotropes are also called (especially in older texts) constant boiling
point mixtures.
Some azeotropic mixtures of pairs of compounds are known, and many azeotropes of
three or more compounds are also known.
In such a case it is not possible to separate the components by fractional distillation.
There are two types of azeotropes: minimum boiling azeotrope and maximum boiling
azeotrope. A solution that shows greater positive deviation from Raoult's law forms a
minimum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition. For example, an ethanol–
water mixture (obtained by fermentation of sugars) on fractional distillation yields a
solution containing at most 97.2% by volume of ethanol. Once this composition has
been achieved, the liquid and vapour have the same composition, and no further
separation occurs. A solution that shows large negative deviation from Raoult's
law forms a maximum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition. Nitric
acid and water is an example of this class of azeotrope. This azeotrope has an
approximate composition of 68% nitric acid and 32% water by mass, with a boiling
point of 393.5 K (120.4 °C).

Discussion:-
1-How do you separate azeotropic mixtures?
-Azeotropic distillation is the use of a third component to separate two close-boiling
components. This is done by means of the formation of an azeotropic mixture
between one of the original components and the third to increase the difference in the
boiling points and facilitate separation by distillation.
