Question
Why does water has high boiling point as compared to $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{S}$? Give reasons for your answer.
✓
Answer
Water molecular are associated with intermolecular H-bonding, whereas $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{S}$ is not. It is because oxygen is smaller in size and more electronegative than 'S'.
$\therefore$ can from H - bord.
