Q80 / 180 · NEET 2014 · Chemistry

Acidity of diprotic acids in aqueous solutions increases in the order:

  • Correct answer
    A
    H2S<H2Se<H2Te
  • B
    H2Se<H2S<H2Te
  • C
    H2Te<H2S<H2Se
  • D
    H2Se< H2Te<H2S

Solution

Acidic strength for a particular group is inversely proportional to the bond energy and directly proportional to the bond length.

H2O<H2S<H2Se<H2Te (acidic strength)

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
