The correct increasing order of the boiling points of liquid oxygen, liquid argon and liquid nitrogen present in liquid air is :

(a) nitrogen, oxygen, argon (b) nitrogen, argon, oxygen

(c) argon, oxygen, nitrogen (d) oxygen, argon, nitrogen

Open in App

Solution

(b) nitrogen, argon, oxygen

nitrogen has the lowest boiling point out of the three…then comes argon and then oxygen

Nitrogen - 78% Oxygen - 20% Argon - 0.93%
