The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of identifying the incorrect statement(s) among the given options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze the first statement **Statement**: Ammonia has the highest dipole moment among carbon monoxide, ammonia, and NF3. - **Analysis**: - Carbon monoxide (CO) has a dipole moment of 0.122 Debye. - Ammonia (NH3) has a significant dipole moment due to the presence of a lone pair on nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms, which creates a net dipole moment directed towards nitrogen. - NF3 has a dipole moment, but the geometry and the electronegativity of fluorine reduce its overall dipole moment compared to ammonia. - **Conclusion**: Ammonia indeed has the highest dipole moment among the three. Therefore, this statement is **correct**. ### Step 2: Analyze the second statement **Statement**: HF has the highest boiling point among methane, ammonia, and HF. - **Analysis**: - Methane (CH4) does not exhibit hydrogen bonding, hence has a low boiling point. - Ammonia (NH3) has hydrogen bonding, which increases its boiling point. - HF has very strong hydrogen bonding due to the high electronegativity of fluorine, resulting in the highest boiling point among the three. - **Conclusion**: This statement is also **correct**. ### Step 3: Analyze the third statement **Statement**: Chlorine has the highest boiling point among chlorine, bromine, and iodine. - **Analysis**: - The boiling points of halogens increase with molecular size due to stronger Van der Waals forces. - Iodine (I2) has the highest boiling point, followed by bromine (Br2), and chlorine (Cl2) has the lowest boiling point. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth statement **Statement**: HClO3 is the weakest acid among HIO3, HBrO3, and HClO3. - **Analysis**: - The acidity of these oxyacids increases with the electronegativity of the central atom. - Chlorine is more electronegative than bromine and iodine, making HClO3 the strongest acid among the three. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **incorrect**. ### Final Answer The incorrect statements are **3 and 4**. ---
