Answer: Option 3

The given number of component $$= 2$$ Given number of phases $$= 2$$ We know, $${\text{degree of freedom (number of independent variables) }} = C - \phi + 2$$ $$\left( {{\text{assuming no reaction taking place}}} \right)$$ $$f = 2 - 2 + 2 = 2$$ And since under azeotropic conditions the composition of a component in both the phases remains same one of the independent variable becomes dependent and hence the degree of freedom reduces to 1.
