Pick the compound with the highest boiling point in each pair. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. Make certain each sentence is complete before submitting your answer.1. For the pair of compounds CO2 or NO2 the one with the highest boiling point is . 2. For the pair of compounds NH3 or CH4 the one with the highest boiling point is 3. For the pair of compounds CS2 or CO2 the one with the highest boiling point is

1) NO2

2) NH3

3) CS2

Explanation:

CO2 is a nonpolar molecule owing to the fact that the two opposing dipoles in the molecule cancels out. Hence its primary intermolecular forces are the weak dispersion forces. How ever NO2 is polar and its molecules are held together by dipole-dipole interaction this makes the boiling point of NO2 greater than that of CO2

NH3 exhibits hydrogen bonding since nitrogen is far more electronegative than hydrogen. However, CH4 is nonpolar and the only intermolecular forces present are weak dispersion forces. This accounts for the fact that NH3 has a greater boiling point than CH4.

The boiling point of a compound also depends on its molecular mass. CS2 has a greater boiling point than CO2 due to the fact that CS2 has a larger molecular mass. The both compounds- CO2 and CS2 has exactly the same kind of intermolecular forces present between their molecules- the weak dispersion forces.

the answers would be

the first one and the second one
