Chapter 11, Problem 11.118QP
For the carbon and nitrogen family hydrides, we have the following boiling points:
Carbon Family,°C | Nitrogen Family,°C |
CH4, −164 | NH3, −33 |
SiH4, −112 | PH3, −88 |
GeH4, −88 | AsH3, −55 |
SnH4, −52 | SbH3, −17 |
Account for the following:
- a The general trend in the boiling points of the binary hydrides.
- b The unusual boiling point of ammonia.
- c The observation that the nitrogen family hydrides have boiling points that are notably higher than those of the carbon family.
