The hydrides of which group elements are examples of electron precise hydrides?
Show Hint
- Group 14 elements
- Group 13 elements
- Group 15 elements
- Group 16 elements
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
- Electron precise hydrides are those in which the total number of valence electrons equals the sum of the bonding electrons around the central atom.
- Group 14 elements form typical electron precise hydrides like CH₄ (methane), where each hydrogen atom contributes 1 electron and carbon contributes 4, making a stable electron count of 8 around carbon.
