Which statement is not correct for ortho and para hydrogen?
- A They have different boiling points
- B Ortho-form is more stable than para-form
- C They differ in their nuclear spin
- D The ratio of ortho to para hydrogen changes with change in temperature
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Ortho-form is more stable than para-form
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(i) Ortho and para hydrogens have difterent nuclear spin. In \(\mathrm{H}_{2}\) molecule, two protons in two H atoms with pare spin are called ortho-hydrogen (ii) Ortho-hydrogen is more stable than para form at and above room temperature only, therefore para form always tends to…
