Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the hydrides of Group 16 elements (H₂O, H₂S, H₂Se, H₂Te) in increasing order of thermal stability, we need to analyze the factors affecting their stability. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Group 16 Hydrides Group 16 elements include oxygen (O), sulfur (S), selenium (Se), and tellurium (Te). The hydrides formed by these elements are: - H₂O (water) - H₂S (hydrogen sulfide) - H₂Se (hydrogen selenide) - H₂Te (hydrogen telluride) ...
