Among the following elements, \(\mathrm{X}\) exhibits maximum catenation and \(\mathrm{Y}\) is the least abundant on earth. \(\mathrm{X}\) and \(\mathrm{Y}\) elements are
- A C, Ge
- B Si, Ge
- C C, Pb
- D Ge, C
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) C, Ge
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Due to smaller size of carbon it shows maximum catenation and form strong \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C}\) bond. \(\mathrm{Ge}\) is the least abundant on earth.
