Hello Student
In case of Chloroform + acetone mixture, the total pressure curve passes through a minimum and gives rise to a maximum in th temperature which is the boiling point. And its negative deviation is shown as follows so that it proves the mixture to be a maximum boiling azeotrope as:
i).In this type, the vapor pressure of non ideal solution is less than the partial pressure of the components if they from ideal solution too.
