Solution

The correct option is C

P H_{3}

{N H}_{3} > P H_{3} < {A s H}_{3} < S b H_{3} < B {i H}_{3}

From

P H_{3}

B {i H}_{3}

the boiling points increase with increase in molecular weights, due to the increase in Van der Waal's forces with molecular mass.

However, boiling point of

{N H}_{3} > P H_{3}

even though

{N H}_{3}

has lower molecular mass than

P H_{3}

, due to the intermolecular hydrogen bonding in Ammonia that is not present in

P H_{3}

and other hydrides in Group-15.
