Stability of hydrides of carbon family

A

`CH_(4) gt SiH_(4) gt GeH_(4) gt SnH_(4) gt PbH_(4)`

B

`CH_(4) lt SiH_(4) lt GeH_(4) lt SnH_(4) lt PbH_(4)`

C

`CH_(4) gt SnH_(4) gt GeH_(4) gt SnH_(4) gt PbH_(4)`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Hydride of carbon family is stable when carbon is near to nucleus, thus its attraction is more towards valence shell electrons, so it is more stable `CH_(4)gt SiH_(4)gtGeH_(4)gtSnH_(4)gtPbH_(4)`
