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.

Why boiling point of ethyl alcohol is higher as compared to dimethyl ether?
The presence of strong hydrogen bonding in ethyl alcohol (when compared to that of dimethylether) increases its boiling point.
Why hydrogen has different boiling point than hydrogen chloride?
Because hydrogen is an element but hydrogen chloride is a polar compound so needs more energy to overcome the permanent dipole bonds. :)
What is the boiling point of nonane?
Nonane is a Carbon Hydrogen compound, with the chemical formula C9H20, and used as a solvent and biodegradable detergent. Its boiling point lies somewhere between 150.4 to 151.0 degrees Celsius.
Is steam from a boiling pot considered a compound or mixture?
Not really, steam is vaporized water. Water is a compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen.
What is the boiling points of a hydrogen bond?
There is no single boiling point. A variety of substances can form hydrogen bonds, all with different boiling points.

Will a compound with a boiling of 68C is likely to be a network structure or in the form of individual molecules?
Because the boiling point of the compound is relatively low, the compound is likely to be in the form of individual molecules.
How is high melting and boiling points related to the structure of the compounds?
The structure of a compound will dictate what intermolecular forces hold the molecules together. The stronger these forces, the higher will be the boiling point.
Explain whyIn Group 17 HF has abnormally high melting and boiling points as compared to other hydrides of the group?
Hydrogen bonding.
What is the boiling point of nonane?
Nonane is a Carbon Hydrogen compound, with the chemical formula C9H20, and used as a solvent and biodegradable detergent. Its boiling point lies somewhere between 150.4 to 151.0 degrees Celsius.
Is steam from a boiling pot considered a compound or mixture?
Not really, steam is vaporized water. Water is a compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen.
Water has an unusually high boiling point?
Water has an unusually high boiling point compared to other molecules of similar size due to the hydrogen bonds that form between the water molecules. The hydrogen bonds must be broken before water can boil.
What is the boiling points of a hydrogen bond?
There is no single boiling point. A variety of substances can form hydrogen bonds, all with different boiling points.
Which compound has the higher boiling point cf4 chf3?
These boiling points are:* CF4: -127,8 0C* CHF3: -82,1 0C
Why is the boiling point of water higher than an organic compound with the same molecular weight?
Water molecules are strongly intermolecularily bonded by (polar) hydrogen bonding.
