Question

7.Give reason for the following
a. H2O has higher boiling point than HF
b. Ice float over the surface of water.
c. ethyl alcohol has higher boiling point than ethylamine​

Answer 1

Answer:

Water has a high boiling point than that of alcohol because the hydrogen bonds present within the molecule are stronger than the ones in case of alcohol. Therefore, a greater amount of energy or temperature is required to break the bonds in order to boil water.Jun 5, 2018
