    Which one of the following hydrides is more acidic?

    A)  \[{{H}_{2}}S\]                  

    B)  \[{{H}_{2}}O\]

    C)  \[{{H}_{2}}Se\]                

    D)  \[{{H}_{2}}Te\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Stability of hydride decreases down the group   and   electropositive   character increases down the group. Therefore, acidic character increases down in a group. So, the correct order is: \[{{H}_{2}}O<{{H}_{2}}S<{{H}_{2}}Se<{{H}_{2}}Te\]
