Which of the following statement is correct with respect to the property of elements with an increase in atomic number in the carbon family (group 14)?

A

Atomic size decrease

B

Ionisation energy increase

C

Metallic character decrease

D

Stability of +2 oxidation state increase

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
As we go down the group inertness of `ns^(2)` pair increase hence tendency to exhibit +2 oxidation state increases and that of +4 oxidation state decreases.
