Azeotropes Below BP

VeritasC&E - 29-8-2022 at 03:27


Do azeotropes behave the same / have the same composition below BP as they do above BP?

No. For an example see the attached paper. (This discusses variation with pressure, but variation with temperature is analogous.)

Thank you, this is useful!

Would you know what the case is for the vapors below BP at same pressure (i.e. does the vapor of a liquid that is not boiling have the same composition of the same liquid when it is boiling?)
