Given below are two statements:
Statement I: The boiling point of hygrates of Group 16 elements follow the order
\(\text{H}_2\text{O}\,>\,\text{H}_2\text{Te}\,>\,\text{H}_2\text{Se}\,>\,\text{H}_2\text{S}\)
Statement II: On the basis of molecular mass, \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\) is expected to have lower boiling point than the other members of the group but due to the presence of extensive H-bonding in \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\), it has higher boiling point.
