The correct Answer is:
To determine the incorrect order of boiling points among the given compounds, we need to analyze the intermolecular forces present in each compound. The boiling point of a substance is influenced by the strength of these intermolecular forces, which include hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: - The compounds mentioned are ammonia (NH3), methylhydrazine (CH3N3), dimethyl sulfate (Me2SO4), sulfuric acid (H2SO4), trimethyl borate (Me3BO3), boric acid (H3BO3), boron trifluoride (BF3), and bismuth triiodide (BiI3). 2. **Analyze Intermolecular Forces**: - **Ammonia (NH3)**: Exhibits strong hydrogen bonding due to the presence of nitrogen, which is highly electronegative. - **Methylhydrazine (CH3N3)**: Also has hydrogen bonding but is less effective compared to ammonia due to steric hindrance. - **Dimethyl Sulfate (Me2SO4)**: Lacks hydrogen bonding; it primarily exhibits van der Waals forces. - **Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4)**: Exhibits hydrogen bonding, leading to a higher boiling point. - **Trimethyl Borate (Me3BO3)**: Lacks hydrogen bonding; it primarily exhibits van der Waals forces. - **Boric Acid (H3BO3)**: Exhibits hydrogen bonding, leading to a higher boiling point. - **Boron Trifluoride (BF3)**: Lacks hydrogen bonding; it primarily exhibits van der Waals forces. - **Bismuth Triiodide (BiI3)**: Has a larger molecular mass, leading to stronger van der Waals forces. 3. **Compare Boiling Points**: - **NH3** > **CH3N3** (due to stronger hydrogen bonding in NH3) - **H2SO4** > **Me2SO4** (due to hydrogen bonding in H2SO4) - **H3BO3** > **Me3BO3** (due to hydrogen bonding in H3BO3) - **BiI3** > **BF3** (due to higher molecular mass of BiI3) 4. **Identify the Incorrect Order**: - The incorrect order of boiling points is likely to be between compounds that do not exhibit hydrogen bonding and have similar molecular masses. For instance, comparing **Me2SO4** and **H2SO4**, the order should be **H2SO4** > **Me2SO4** due to hydrogen bonding in H2SO4. 5. **Conclusion**: - The incorrect order of boiling points among the mentioned compounds is the one that suggests that methylhydrazine (CH3N3) has a higher boiling point than ammonia (NH3), which is incorrect due to the stronger hydrogen bonding in ammonia.
