- 14
- 50
- 82
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The elements in Group 14 include carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), and lead (Pb). The melting point generally decreases as you go down the group. The element with the least melting point in this group is carbon, with an atomic number of 6.
Thus, the correct answer is option (a) 6.
