Which has the highest boiling point CH4 SiH4 GeH4 SnH4?

– The molar masses of CH4, SiH4, GeH4, and SnH4 are approximately 16 g/mol, 32 g/mol, 77 g/mol, and 123 g/mol, respectively. Therefore, CH4 is expected to have the lowest boiling point and SnH4 the highest boiling point.

Which has a higher boiling point SiH4 or GeH4?

The bigger the atoms, the more polarisable their electron clouds and the greater the dispersion forces. Hence boiling points are in order: SnH4 > GeH4 > SiH4 > CH4.

Why is the boiling point of SiH4 higher than CH4?

This makes the intermolecular dispersion forces in SiH4 bigger than CH4. Because of this, SiH4 requires larger kinetic energy to break these dispersion forces before the molecules can convert to vapor. This explains why the boiling point of SiH4> boiling point of CH4.

Which of the following molecules has the highest boiling point CH4 SiH4?

As a result, the id-id interactions between SiH4 molecules are stronger than those between CH4 molecules and require a greater amount of energy to overcome these interactions. Hence boiling point of SiH4 is greater than boiling point of CH4.

How does the boiling point change as you go from CH4 to SnH4?

The presence of hydrogen bonds considerably increases the boiling point of a substance. A plot of the boiling points of Group 4 hydrides shows a steady increase as you go down the group from CH4 to SnH4. This is because the strength of the van der Waals’ forces increases.
