The normal boiling point for H₂Se is higher than the normal boiling point for H₂S.This can be explained by: A)larger dipole-dipole forces for H₂Se B)larger dispersion forces for H₂Se C)larger hydrogen-bond forces for H₂Se D)larger dipole-dipole forces,larger dispersion forces,and larger hydrogen-bond forces for H₂Se

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The substances mentioned are H2Se and H2S, respectively. The higher boiling point of H2Se compared to H2S can be attributed to larger dispersion forces, as both molecules are nonpolar and dispersion forces increase with the size and mass of the molecule. H2Se is larger and heavier than H2S, leading to stronger dispersion forces.
