Which of the group `16` elements has the least negative `Delta_(eg)H`?

A

`O`

B

`S`

C

`Se`

D

`Te`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The correct order of decreaing negative `Delta_(eg)H` is:
`Sgt Se gt Te gt O`. Oxygen has the least negative `Delta_(eg)H` on account of maximum `e^(-)-e^(-)` repulsion.
