The order of inceasing boiling of the following compounds:
(a) Fluorine,
(b) Hydrogen fluoride,
(c) Hydrogen chloride,
Answer to Problem 2TC
The increasing order of boiling point is given as:
Explanation of Solution
A non-polar bond is formed by the sharing of negatively charged species (called electrons) between two same atoms having no electronegativity difference whereas a polar bond is formed by the sharing of negatively charged species (electrons) between two different atoms having a slight electronegativity difference between them. In a polar bond, the atom with slightly higher electronegativity gains a negative charge while the atom with slightly lower electronegativity gains a positive charge.
The boiling point of a molecule depends on the nature of a bond as well on the type of intermolecular force of attraction. A non-polar molecule has a lower boiling point due to no extra intermolecular forces whereas a polar molecule shows a higher value of boiling point because of extra intermolecular forces.
Among the given molecules,
Thus, considering all the consequences the increasing order of boiling point is given as:
Conclusion:
Therefore, the increasing order of boiling point is given as:
