What is the boiling point of heavy water?

  1. A \(100 \cdot 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  2. B \(101 \cdot 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  3. C \(273^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  4. D \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(101 \cdot 4^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Correct answer is \(101.4^{0} \mathrm{C}\)
The boiling point of heavy water is \(101.4^{0} \mathrm{C}\) or \(374.4 \mathrm{~K}\). Its melting point is \(3.8^{0} \mathrm{C}\) or \(276.8 \mathrm{~K}\).
