Give reasons for the following: (i) Binary compounds of oxygen and fluorine are called fluorides. (ii) Fluorine forms only one oxoacid HOF. (iii) Noble gases have very low melting and boiling points.

Ionic bond is defined as the electrostatic force of attraction holding the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds are mostly crystalline solid having high melting and boiling points, electrical conductivity in moleten state, solubility in water etc. Covalent bond is defined as the force which binds atoms of same or different elements by mutual sharing of electrons in a covalent bond. Covalent compounds are solids, liquids or gases. They have low melting and boiling points compounds. They are more soluble in non-polar solvents. Which of the following is arranged order of increasing boiling point ?
