Why does hydrochloric acid have a higher boiling point than diatomic fluorine?Why does hydrochloric acid have a higher boiling p
oint than diatomic fluorine? A.)The stabilizing effect of dipole interactions in hydrochloric acid is high.
B. )Hydrochloric acid is a larger molecule.
C. )Fluorine is a larger molecule.
D. )Hydrochloric acid is polar whereas fluorine is non-polar.
E.)Hydrochloric acid has high intermolecular forces whereas fluorine has low intermolecular forces.
Hydrochloric acid is polar which means it has stronger bonds between it's molecules, unlike diatomic fluorine that is non-polar and has weaker bonds. That's why it has a higher boiling point.
<span>We know that protons gives positive charge, neutrons no charge and electrons negative, then +14 - 12 = +2
So the charge of the atom is sign positive and magnitude 2</span>
