The correct order of the thermal stability of hydrogen halides () is:

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Thermal stability depends on the bond dissociation enthalpy of the bond.As we move down the halogen group ():The size of the halogen atom increases.The bond length increases.The bond dissociation energy decreases.Therefore, is the most stable and is the least stable.Order: .
