  • question_answer
    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) [BHU 2004]

    A) Atomic size decrease

    B) Ionization energy increase

    C) Metallic character decrease

    D) Stability of +2 oxidation state increase

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    As we go down the group inertness of \[n{{s}^{2}}\] pair increase hence tendency to exhibit +2 oxidation state increases and that of +4 oxidation state decreases.
