Question

Write the order of thermal stability and reducing nature of the hydrides of group 16 elements

Answer 1

Answer: The thermal stability of the hydrides of group 16 elements decreases down the group, i.e., H2O > H2S > H2Se > H2Te > H2Po. This is because M-H bond dissociation energy decreases down the group with the increase in the size of central atom.

Answer 2

hey here is your answer

Answer: The thermal stability of the hydrides of group 16 elements decreases down the group, i.e., H2O > H2S > H2Se > H2Te > H2Po. This is because M-H bond dissociation energy decreases down the group with the increase in the size of central atom.
