D

Low vapor pressure

1) Which of the following properties of water is primarily responsible for its high boiling point?
The high boiling point of water is due to strong hydrogen bonds between water molecules. These strong intermolecular forces make it difficult for water molecules to escape into the gas phase, resulting in a low vapor pressure. A low vapor pressure means a higher temperature is required for the vapor pressure to equal the atmospheric pressure, which is the definition of boiling point.
The correct option is d) Low vapor pressure.

2) Which of the following statements about acids is correct?
According to the Brønsted-Lowry definition, an acid is a proton (H+) donor. While Lewis acids accept electron pairs, the Brønsted-Lowry definition is
