The element with maximum bond-energy

The element with maximum bond-energy
  1. C
  2. Pb
  3. Ge
  4.  Si

Solution

The atomic size increases down the group and decreases in a period from left to right. So, among the given all, the carbon has the smallest atomic size. It has high bond energy.

Hence, the element with maximum bond-energy is carbon atom.
