MCQ
Boric acid in solid, whereas $BF _3$ is gas at room temperature because of
  • A
    Strong ionic bond in Boric acid
  • B
    Strong van der Waal's interaction in Boric acid
  • Strong hydrogen bond in Boric acid
  • D
    Strong covalent bond in $BF _3$

Answer

Correct option: C.
Strong hydrogen bond in Boric acid
c
Boric acid has strong hydrogen bonding while $BF _3$ does not. Therefore boric acid is solid.
