The comparatively high b.pt. of HF is due to
high reactivity of fluorine
small size of hydrogen atom
formation of hydrogen bonds and consequent association
high IE of fluorine
C.
formation of hydrogen bonds and consequent association
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding is found in (HF), due to higher electronegativity of fluorine atoms.
Hydrogen bonding is helpful in the association of HF molecule, so HF is found in liquid form.
Phenols are more acidic than alcohols because
phenoxide ion is stabilised by resonance
phenols are more soluble in polar solvents
phenoxides ions do not exhibit resonance
alcohols do not lose H atoms at all
Formalin is the commercial name of
formic acid
fluoroform
40% aqueous solution of methanal
