Why water has a high boiling point compared with hydrogen sulfide a compound with a similar structure?
Hydrogen bonding is a very strong intermolecular attraction for one water molecule to another. Hydrogen sulfide, because of the lower electronegativity of sulfur does not have hydrogen bonding. This strong attraction must be overcome to make the substance boil.
Does cooking oil have more surface tension than water?
Because of the polarity of the water molecule, hydrogen bonds form between them. This results in the higher surface tension. Oil is nonpolar, so hydrogen bonds do not form between the molecules, so the surface tension is less.
