Current Question (ID: 10648)

Question:
$\text{The compound among the following with the lowest p}K_a \text{ value is?}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • 2. $\text{H}_2\text{S}$
  • 3. $\text{H}_2\text{Se}$
  • 4. $\text{H}_2\text{Te}$ (Correct)
Solution:
$\text{HINT: Down the group acidity increases.}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{STEP 1: Down the group acidity of Group 16 hydride increases down the group because bond dissociation enthalpy of H-E bond decreases down the group and because of its acidity of hydride increases.}$ $\text{STEP 2:}$ $\text{The p}K_a \text{ values for the molecules are:}$ $\text{H}_2\text{O}: \text{p}K_a = 15.74$ $\text{H}_2\text{S}: \text{p}K_a = 7.40$ $\text{H}_2\text{Se}: \text{p}K_a = 3.89$ $\text{H}_2\text{Te}: \text{p}K_a = 2.60$ $\text{Since lower p}K_a \text{ values indicate stronger acids, H}_2\text{Te has the lowest p}K_a \text{ value and is therefore the strongest acid among the given options.}$
