Answer:

therefore, N2, CO, H20

Decreasing boiling point

Step-by-step explanation:

the bond existing in H2O is hydrogen bond

bond existing in N2 is covalent bond, force existing is dipole-dipole-interaction

bond existing in CO is covalent bond , force existing between is induced -dipole- induced dipole-interaction

hydrogen bond is the strongest , followed by dipole-dipole-interaction and induced -dipole- induced dipole-interaction

the stronger the bond , the higher the boiling point

therefore, N2, CO, H20

Answer:

-195.8º < -191.5º < 100º

Step-by-step explanation:

Water, or H20, starts boiling at 100ºC.

Nitrogen, or N2, starts boiling at -195.8ºC.

Carbon monoxide, or C0, starts boiling at -191.5ºC.

When we place these in order from decreasing boiling point:

-195.8º goes first, then -191.5º, and 100º goes last.
