Oxygen and sulphur both are the member of same group in periodic table but H2O is liquid while H2S is gas because

  • molecular weight of water is more

  • electronegativity of sulphur is more

  • H2S  is weak acid

  • water molecules are having weak hydrogen bonds between them


D.

water molecules are having weak hydrogen bonds between them

Both O and S belong to the same group but H2O is a liquid while H2S is a gas. This can be explained on the basis of electronegativity.

In water due to the high electronegativity of oxygen, hydrogen bonds are formed. As a result the molecules of H2O get associated together, hence water exists as liquid at room temperature. On the other hand, the electronegativity of S is less and therefore, hydrogen bonding in H2S is almost negligible.

As a result of which molecules of H2S are not associated and H2S exists as a gas at room temperature.
