Detailed Solution

In covalent compounds, the boiling point increases with increase of molecular mass as van der Waals' forces increase. 

The volatility thus, decreases in covalent compounds with increase in molecular mass. However, hydrogen bonding is present in HF.

Due to which, the boiling point of HF is higher and the volatility is less.
