The equilibrium liquid composition compared to the vapor composition in case of________________?
Correct answer: D. Same
- A. Azeotropic mixture is
- B. More
- C. Less
- D. Same
- E. Either more or less; depends on the system
Explanation
At an azeotrope, the equilibrium liquid and vapour compositions are identical, so the mixture distils without composition change. This equality is what prevents ordinary distillation from separating the azeotropic mixture further.
