View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I.
Option B (Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I) is correct because while both statements are true, surface tension alone doesn't explain why the capillary fills completely.

Amongst NH3,PH3,AsH3N{H_3},P{H_3},As{H_3} and SbH3Sb{H_3} the one with highest B.P is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
SbH3Sb{H_3} because of higher molecular weight
Option B (SbH3Sb{H_3} because of higher molecular weight) is correct because as the molecular weight increases down the group, the strength of the London dispersion forces increases, leading to a higher boiling point. NH3NH_3 has hydrogen bonding which would normally make it have the highest boiling point, but SbH3 has a significantly higher molecular weight which overcomes the hydrogen bonding in NH3.
