MCQ
$HF$ has highest boiling point among hydrogen halides, because it has
- Alowest dissociation enthalpy
- Bstrongest van der Waals’ interactions
- ✓strongest hydrogen bonding
- Dlowest ionic character
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
strongest hydrogen bonding
c
$HF$ has strong hydrogen bond. $\therefore $ It has highest boiling point among hydrogen halides. The strong hydrogen bond is due to more difference in electronegativity between $F$ and $H$ atoms
