Solution

The correct option is C CH3CH2OH and CH3COCH3
Mixtures of CH3CH2OH and CH3COCH3 shows positive deviation from Raoult's law. So, vapour pressure of the solution increases and boiling point decreases. Since, higher the vapor pressure, lower the boiling point.

A) and B) shows negative deviation
D) ideal solution
