Question

Oxygen has a low boiling point because there are

A weak covalent bonds between the oxygen atoms
B
weak covalent bonds between the oxygen molecules
C
weak forces of attraction between the oxygen atoms
D weak forces of attraction between the oxygen molecules

Answer 1

The intermolecular forces between the oxygen molecules are very weak because of which a very less amount of energy is required for the oxygen to evaporate into a gas. There is no H-bonding or dipole movement present in oxygen molecules because of which the forces binding the molecules are absent in oxygen.

hence your correct option should be D
