The boiling points of HF, HCI, HBr and HI follow the order |
|
Answer» `HF gt HCI gt HBr gt HI` (1) Stronge H-bonding that increase boiling point. (2) VAN der Waal.s force increase boiling point. Van der WAALS. force increases with increase in atomic radius. (3) Increase in the molecular weight increases boiling point. Factor (2) and (3) give us the following order: `HI > HBr > HCl` Factor (1) makes HF highest boiling point containing. |
