The substance with highest boiling point...

The substance with highest boiling point out of the following `H_2`, He, Ne, Xe, `CH_4` is

A

`Xe`

B

`CH_4`

C

`Ne`

D

`H_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Magnitude of van der Waal's forces in a non polar molecule depends upon the number of electrons in it. Out of the substances given Xe has the highest number of electrons As such the magnitude of van der Waal's forces in Xe is maximum and so is its boiling point.
