← ScienceWhich mechanism elevates water's boiling point significantly more than comparable solvents of similar mass?
A)Intermolecular hydrogen bonding✓
B)London dispersion forces
C)Dipole-dipole attraction
D)Covalent bond saturation
💡 Explanation
Boiling point increases because of the intermolecular hydrogen bonding between water molecules. This strong interaction requires more energy rather than weaker intermolecular forces; therefore, a higher temperature is needed.
