Does ammonia have a higher boiling point than methane?
Yes, Boiling point of ammonia, NH3: - 33,34 0C Boiling poit of methane, CH4: - 161,6 0C
Why do ammonia has higher melting and boiling point than methane?
Ammonia (NH3) has hydrogen bonding intermolecular forces, whereas methane (CH4) does not. In addition, ammonia is polar, and so also has dipole-dipole forces and methane does not. Thus, it takes more energy (higher temperature) to boil and melt ammonia than it does methane.
Why is the boiling point of methane much lower than the boiling point of hydrochloric acid?
Because of the hydrogen bonds in HCl and it's polarity. High polarity = high boiling point. All alkanes (methane) are nonpolar and have low boiling points. Alcohols and compounds with hydrogen bonding have higher boiling points because hydrogen bonds are very strong. Ask a chemistry teacher if you need a better explanation.
Why methane mercaptan has a lower boiling point than methanol even though methyl mercaptan has a higher molecular weight?
For the same reason that water isn't a gas. Oxygen is highly electronegative and the hydrogen bonding present in water and methanol raises the intermolecular attractive forces and results in a higher boiling point.
Why does graphite have a higher boiling point than sodium chloride?
Graphite has not a boiling point.
Why does methane have a higher boiling point than Fluromethane?
Metahne does not have a higher boiling point than methane. Fluoromethane, CH3F, has a boiling point of 195K, -78.2C, methane, CH4, has a boiling point of 109K approx -164 C. I make that fluoromethane has a higher temeprature boiling point than methane. This is what you would expect, London dispersion forces will be greater in CH3F as it has more electrons than CH4. CH3F is polar and there will be dipole dipole interactions which will not be present in CH4.
Does ammonia have a higher boiling point than methane?
Yes, Boiling point of ammonia, NH3: - 33,34 0C Boiling poit of methane, CH4: - 161,6 0C
Why do ammonia has higher boiling point than methane in terms of intermolecular forces?
it doesn't

The boiling temperature of water is so much higher than that of methane because water molecules are what?
Water is polar and is strongly hydrogen bonded.
Is liquid methane colder than liquid nitrogen?
No, at their boiling points liquid nitrogen is colder than liquid methane.

What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
Does chlorine have a higher boiling point than iodine?
iodine is having higher boiling point

Boiling points water and methane?
Water boils at a higher temperature than methane because water is a polar compound. Each molecule is held together chemically. Each molecule is held to other molecules by hydrogen bonding. With Methane, it is every molecule for itself.
Why does graphite have a higher boiling point than sodium chloride?
Graphite has not a boiling point.
