Answer:
c. HF can participate in hydrogen bonding.
Explanation:
<u>The boiling points of substances often reflect the strength of the </u><u>intermolecular forces</u><u> operating among the molecules.</u>
If it takes more energy to separate molecules of HF than of the rest of the hydrogen halides because HF molecules are held together by stronger intermolecular forces, then the boiling point of HF will be higher than that of all the hydrogen halides.
A particularly strong type of intermolecular attraction is called the hydrogen bond, <em>which is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction between the hydrogen atom in a polar bond</em>, such as N-H, O-H, or F-H, and an electronegative O, N, or F atom.

I just got it right in the test :)
Answer:
A substance which burns in air and tends to produce heat and light is known as Combustible substances. Non-combustible substances are certain substances which are not combustible in the presence of air. Will not burn on being exposed to flame.
Answer:
The emission spectrum is formed when the electrons of a particular atom absorb energy and are excited (in this case by heating), reaching higher energy levels.
You can see it for example with an experiment where we light alcohol mixed with banana chips (it has potassium). The burning alcohol emits heat that makes potassium atoms excite and these in turn emit something red, orange light. If we add for example boric acid you see a green light.
