Solution
Minimum Boiling azeotropes:
Minimum boiling azeotropes are those which boil at a lower temperature than boiling point of each component in the pure state. Consequently vapour pressure of the mixture is higher than each component.
Example 95.5 % ethyl alcohol and 4.5 % water by mass forms a minimum boiling azeotrope
Here,
