Which of the following is arranged in the increasing order of enthalpy of vaporisation?

(d) PH3, AsH3, NH3

Explanation:

The order of heat of vaporisation or boiling point of the hydrides of VA group depend upon their molecular weight. Anomalous behaviour of NH3 is due to H-bonding present in NH3. Thus the correct order is

NH3 > AsH3 > PH3
