Answer 1

Heya!!!!✌

✍Your answer⬇⬇

⭐NH3 is soluble in water as it forms hydrogen bonding with water molecules while phosphine does not. NH3 is a polar covalent compound due to difference in the electronegativity of nitrogen and hydrogen while PH3 is a covalent compound as both P and H have nearly same electronegativity. The polarity of NH3 is responsible for hydrogen bonding⭐
