BY CHECKING THE REACTIVITY OF AN ELEMENT WHICH IS MOST REACTIVE OR NOT AND YOU STUDY TYPE OF CHEMICAL REACTION IN 1 CH AND YOU CHECK THE REACTIVITY OF ELEMENTS IN 3 CH METALS AND NON METALS PAGE NO 45 IN NCERT BOOK
The answer should be hydrogen bonding. Water only has oxygen and hydrogen in it, which are both nonmetals, so you know the answer cannot be metallic or ionic. It also cannot be nonpolar because the electronegativity of the oxygens will make the molecule polar. You can also know it is hydrogen bonding because it can only take place when a hydrogen is attached to an oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen. These bonds are very strong attractions, so the molecules are extremely hard to pull apart, creating a high boiling point. Hope that helps!
all the elements in group 18 are Nobel gases or inert gases . all the elements such as neon , helium, argon etc. ,their outermost shell is completely filled . The noble gases have the largest ionization energies, reflecting their chemical inertness
Lower energy and more disorder
