It is simply the water that freexes.

Water is not simply a mixture if hydrogen and oxygen. The two elements are bound together to form water molecules. So it must be treated as its own substance.

The behavior of water cannot be explained using the behavior of elemental hydrogen or oxygen. Its properties are different from its constituent elements.

Water has a high melting point and boiling point because of hydrogen bonds


Why is the boiling point of water greater than hydrogen sulfide?

The boiling point of a substance is determined by the strength of the intermolecular forces between its molecules. Water molecules form stronger hydrogen bonds compared to hydrogen sulfide molecules, leading to a higher boiling point in water.

Electricity is passed through water in electrolysis and two gases are formed. If one gas has a boiling point of -183 degrees and other has a boiling point of -253 degrees what are the gasses?

We know that the gas oxygen has a boiling point of about -183 degrees C. The gas hydrogen has a boiling point of about -253 degrees C.


What hydride of chalcogen have least boiling point?

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has the lowest boiling point among the hydrides of the chalcogen group (oxygen, sulfur, selenium, and tellurium). This is because hydrogen sulfide is a smaller molecule with weaker intermolecular forces compared to the other chalcogen hydrides.


Does water have a higher than expected boiling point because of hydrogen and oxygen forming a single covalent bond?

Water has a higher boiling point than would be expected for a covalent compound of that molecular weight, because the water molecule is highly polar, and forms what are known as coordinate covalent bonds between water molecules. The polarity of the water molecule is the result of its shape, not the result of the single covalent bond that exists between the oxygen atom and each of the two hydrogen atoms.
