Match the liquid mixtures in List-I with their corresponding properties in List-II. List-I List-II (A) n-Hexane + n-Heptane (I) _ mix H (B) Ethanol + Water (II) _ mix H > 0 and forms minimum boiling azeotrope (C) Nitric acid + Water (III) _ mix V = 0 and forms an ideal solution Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Step-by-step solution

n-Hexane and n-heptane form an ideal solution because their intermolecular interactions are similar to those in their pure states. For an ideal solution, _ mix V = 0 and _ mix H = 0 . Thus, (A) matches with (III). Ethanol and water form a non-ideal solution showing a positive deviation from Raoult's law because the addition of water breaks the hydrogen bonds between ethanol molecules. This leads to _ mix H > 0 and the formation of a minimum boiling azeotrope. Thus, (B) matches with (II). Nitric acid and water form
