Let T (xi0) represent the temperature dependence (T) on the gravimetric mole fraction oi component i (Xi0) for the system within an ebulliometer or an equilibrium still operating steadily under constant pressure. We proved that the necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of maximun (minimum) azeotrope is(T/xi0)p |xi0=0>0(<0)
i=1
2;and the maximun (minimum) azeo-tropic point coincides with the maximun (minimum) point of T (xi0). Similar conclusions are obtained tor the case of constant temperature.
