Feb 23, 2013 · Hi, I want to know the reasons Why NO2 have a higher boiling point than CO2. is it because of london forces which are stronger in NO2? or is it because the CO2 is nonpolar. Thus, the dipole-dipole forces are weaker. In general, is dipole-dipole forces in in nonpolar molecule considered to be a weaker which makes the boiling point lower? Thanks in Advance. Eduhawks.com One of these species has a boiling point of 60.3 oC and the other has a boiling point of 47.5 oC. Which compound has which boiling point? 3. Rank each of the following groups of substances in order of increasing boiling points, and explain your reasoning: a. NH3, He, CH3F, CH4. b. CH3Br, Ne, CH3OH, CH3CN. c. CH4, SiH4, GeH4, SnH4. 4.
