Which has the lowest boiling point?

A

`NH_(3)`

B

`PH_(3)`

C

`AsCl_(3)`

D

`SbH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In the hydrides of group 15, the boiling points changes as
`underset(238.5 K)(NH_(3)) gt underset(185.5K)(PH_(3))lt underset(210.6 K)(AsH_(3)) lt underset(254.6K)(SbH_(3)) lt underset(290 K)(BiH_(3))`
`:.` Generally mass increases then boiling point increases.
The higher point of `NH_(3)` is due to excessive hydrogen bonding, so `PH_(3)` have lowest boiling point among hydrides of group number `15`, i.e, nitrogen family.
