Which substance would have the highest boiling point?
A.CH₄
B.SiH₄
C.GeH₄
D.SnH₄
Explanation
Core Concept
All are nonpolar molecules with only London dispersion forces. Boiling point increases with molecular size/mass, so SnH₄ (largest) has the strongest LDFs and highest boiling point.
Correct Answer
DSnH₄
