Azetrope

It was good finding out about positive and negative azetropes. I liked the like versus unlike attraction to explain the boiling point deviation from the mixture law for boiling. It is still important that the curves have a minimum and maximum off from the extremes to get intermediate boiling. I found the information about chloroform mixtures just fascinating. It was true that the flagon of pure alchol flogged from Melbourne Uni in 1985 did have a poisonous entertainer in it.
