Question

The boiling points of some group 7A hydrides are tabulated below.

Answer 1

hey there!:

In the case of ammonia, the hydrogen bond is formed using the lone pair present in nitrogen and the hydrogen having δ+ charge (due to bonding with electronegative N) of another ammonia molecule. Thus the inter molecular attraction increases which in turn increases the boiling point .

Option B is the correct answer.

Hope this helps!
