Give below are two statements:

 

Statement-I : Noble gases have very high boiling points.

Statement-II: Noble gases are monoatomic gases. They are held together by strong dispersion forces. Because of this they are liquefied at very low temperature. Hence, they have very high boiling points.

In the light of the above statements. choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

As noble gases do not form compounds, hence they cannot occur in the form of diatomic molecules. 

Noble gases, being monoatomic, have no interatomic forces except weak dispersion forces and therefore, they are liquefied at very low temperatures. Hence, they have low boiling points.

Noble gases are held together by weak dispersion forces.

Statement I and II are False
