Which is the correct thermal stability order for H2EH_2E (E = O, S, Se, Te and Po)?

A

H2S<H2O<H2Se<H2Te<H2PoH_2S < H_2O < H_2Se < H_2Te < H_2Po

B

H2O<H2S<H2Se<H2Te<H2PoH_2O < H_2S < H_2Se < H_2Te < H_2Po

C

H2Po<H2Te<H2Se<H2S<H2OH_2Po < H_2Te < H_2Se < H_2S < H_2O

D

H2Se<H2Te<H2Po<H2O<H2SH_2Se < H_2Te < H_2Po < H_2O < H_2S

Step-by-Step Solution

On going down the group thermal stability order for H2EH_2E decreases because H-E bond energy decreases. Therefore, the order of stability is H2Po<H2Te<H2Se<H2S<H2OH_2Po < H_2Te < H_2Se < H_2S < H_2O.
