What is the trend of boiling points of hydrides of N, O, and F?
- Due to lower molecular masses $NH _{3}, H _{2}O$ and HF have lower boiling points than those of the subsequent group member hydrides
- Due to higher electronegativity of N, O and F; $NH _{3}, H _{2}O$ and HF show hydrogen bonding and hence higher boiling points than the hydrides of their subsequent group members.
- There is no regular trend in the boiling points of hydrides
- Due to higher oxidation states of N, O and F, the boiling points of $NH _{3}, H _{2}O$ and HF are higher than the hydrides of their subsequent group members.
