The variation of the boiling points of the hydrogen halides is in the order HF>HI>HBr>HCl. What explains the higher boiling point of hydrogen fluoride?
There is strong hydrogen bonding between HF molecules.
The bond energy of HF molecules is greater than in other hydrogen halides.
The effect of nuclear shielding is much reduced in fluorine which polarizes the HF molecule.
The electronegativity of fluorine is much higher than for other elements in the group.

Which of the statements given below is incorrect?
O3 molecule is bent.
ONF is isoelectronic with O2N− www.vedantu.com 54
OF2 is an oxide of fluorine.
Cl2O7 is an anhydride of perchloric acid
The formation of the oxide ion, O2−(g), from oxygen atom requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown in below: O(g)+e−⟶O−(g) ; ΔfH⊖=−141 kJ mol−1 O−(g)+e−⟶O2 − (g) ; ΔfH⊖=+780 kJ mol−1 Thus process of formation of O2− in gas phase is unfavourable though O2− is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that,
O− ion has comparatively smaller size than oxygen atom.
Oxygen is more electronegative.
Addition of electron in oxygen results in larger size of the ion.
Electron repulsion outweighs the stability gained by achieving noble gas configuration.
