Solution:

A mixture of chloroform and acetone forms a solution with negative deviation from Raoult’s law. This is because chloroform molecule is able to form hydrogen bond with acetone molecule as shown.
This decreases the escaping tendency of molecules for each component and consequently the vapour pressure decreases resulting in negative deviation from Raoult’s law.
The solutions that show large negative deviation from Raoult’s law form maximum boiling azeotrope at a specific composition
