Solution

The correct option is A HNO3+H2O solution
The solution (liquid mixtures) which boils at constant temperature can distil unchanged in composition are called azeotropes.
Solution of HNO3 and H2O will form maximum boiling point azeotrope because they have a composition of having maximum boiling point. Maximum boiling azeotropes show negative deviation from Raoult's law
Composition(%)Boiling point
HNO368.0359K
H2O32.0373K
Boiling point of the azeotrope of these two solutions is 393.5K
