Answer:

False

Explanation:

Increase in polarity of a molecule leads to higher boiling points. The more polar a molecule is, the higher the energy required to breaks intermolecular forces of attraction hence the higher the boiling point. This is the reason why ionic compounds and compounds having polar covalent bonds in them tend to have high boiling points.

Which molecule has the greatest difference in electronegativity (DE) between the two different elements? A. CO_2 B. H_2S C. NH_3
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Water has the greatest ΔEN

ΔEN H₂O → 3.4 - 2.1 = 1.3   Option D.

Explanation:

We should find the Electronegativity data in the Periodic table for all the elements:

C : 2.6

O: 3.4

H: 2.1

S: 2.6

N: 3.0

a. ΔEN CO₂ → 3.4 - 2.6 = 0.4

b. ΔEN H₂S → 2.6 - 2.1 = 0.5

c. ΔEN NH₃ → 3 - 2.1= 0.9

d. ΔEN H₂O → 3.4 - 2.1 = 1.3
