The correct statements with respect to halides of group 14 elements are
I. Both \(\mathrm{CCl}_4\) and \(\mathrm{SiCl}_4\) undergo hydrolysis
II. \(\mathrm{GeX}_4\) is more stable than \(\mathrm{GeX}_2\)
III. \(\mathrm{PbX}_4\) is less stable than \(\mathrm{PbX}_2\)
IV. Stability of dihalides decreases down the group.
- A I, IV only
- B II, IV only
- C II, III only
- D III, IV only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) II, III only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{CCl}_4\) does not undergo hydrolysis since \(\mathrm{C}\) does not have 'd' orbital to accept the electrons from donor. \(\therefore \quad\) (I) is incorrect. GP. 14 elements have 4 electrons in their valence shells. So, \((+4)\) and \((+2)\) are the common oxidate…
