Water, h2o, and methane, ch4, have about the same mass and differ by only one type of atom. why is the boiling point of water so much higher than that of methane?

Hydrogen bonding between molecules of water, they take a lot more energy to break in large numbers

There is one s orbital, and there are three p orbitals, five d orbitals, and seven f orbitals. thus, the answer is b. do not confuse the number of orbitals in a subshell with the number of electrons the subshell can hold. each orbital can hold two electrons, so the capacity of an nf subshell is 14 electrons.
