Question

Place the following substances in order of decreasing boiling point. N₂ O₂ H₂ A)O₂ > H₂> N₂ B)N₂ > H₂ > O₂ C)N₂ > O₂ > H₂ D)O₂ > N₂ > H₂ E)H₂ > N₂ > O₂

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The boiling points of substances are influenced by molecular weight and intermolecular forces. O₂ has a higher boiling point than N₂ due to stronger London dispersion forces, and both have higher boiling points than H₂.
