Which has the highest molar heat of vaporisation?

A

HF

B

HCl

C

HBr

D

HI

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Due to extensive H-bonding in HF(l) more energy is required to convert a given amount (say one mole) of HF from liquid to vapour state. Thus out of different hydrogen halides, molar enthalpy of vaporisation of HF is maximum.
