Detailed Solution

Strength of hydrogen bonding depends on the size and electronegativity of the atom.

Smaller the size of the atom, greater is the electronegativity and hence stronger is the H-bonding. Thus, the order of strength of H-bonding is H..F>HO>H...N.

But each HF molecule is linked only to two other HF molecules while each H2O molecule is linked to four other H2O molecules through H-bonding.
Hence, the decreasing order of boiling points is H2O>HF>NH3.
