Question

Statement 1: At higher temperatures, liquid water turns into water vapour.

Statement 2: Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds.

• A. Statement 1 is correct and statement 2 is wrong.
• B. Statement 1 is wrong and statement 2 is correct.
• C. Both statements are correct.
• D. Both statements are wrong.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both statements are correct.

Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds.

At higher temperatures, hydrogen bonds between water molecules break apart and so the force of attraction between these molcules gets much weaker. So, the liquid water gets converted into water vapour.
