  2. Negative deviation from Raoult's law

  3. Ideal solution

  4. Options (2) and (3)

  5. None of these

A Correct answer
Explanation

This option is correct because certain composition of this non-ideal solution shows positive deviation, the vapour pressure of the solution is the highest and its boiling point is lowest. Such non-ideal solutions show the minimum boiling point of azeotropes.
