Answer:4
Explanation:
If we carefully observe the electronegativity of the elements in question
P-2.19
N-3.04
C-2.55
Si-1.9
H-2.2
SiH4 is definitely more polar than CH4 hence greater dipole forces of a higher boiling point. NH3 is more polar than PH3 hence NH3 has greater dipole forces and a higher boiling point. Electronegative differences influences the polarity of a bond. The greater the electro negativity difference between bonding atoms, the greater the dipole forces and the greater the boiling point.
Coal can replace petroleum base fuel when you are just heating something that dont need big amount of heat. examples of it is when producing steam, coal is just used to heat water and produce steam because coal is much cheaper and the coal can already do the job in heating the water
