Which of the following noble gases has the highest van der Waals' force of attraction?
- A Ar
- B \(\mathrm{Ne}\)
- C \(\mathrm{Xe}\)
- D \(\mathrm{He}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{Xe}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
van der Waals' force of attraction increase with increase in atomic mass. On going down the group atomic mass increases. \(\therefore\) Xe has the highest van der Waals' force of attraction.
