    Which of the following has lowest thermal stability and maximum acid strength?

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

    B) \[{{H}_{2}}O\]

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

    D)  \[{{H}_{2}}Te\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    The thermal stability of the hydrides of VI A group (i.e.,\[{{H}_{2}}O\]to\[{{H}_{2}}Te\])is as: \[{{H}_{2}}O>{{H}_{2}}S>{{H}_{2}}Se>{{H}_{2}}Te\]and the acidic character increases from\[{{H}_{2}}O\]to\[{{H}_{2}}Te\]is as: \[{{H}_{2}}O<{{H}_{2}}S<{{H}_{2}}Se<{{H}_{2}}Te\] Hence,\[{{H}_{2}}Te\]has lowest thermal stability and maximum acid strength.
