As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.
Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.
Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.
Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.
The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.

Answer: how do we answer when there are no options??
Explanation:
Answer:
2.05moles
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation in this question is as follows;
Sn + 2H2SO4 → SnSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
Based on the above equation, 2 moles of H2SO4 reacted to produce 1 mole of SnSO4
However, the mass of SnSO4 produced is 219.65 grams. Using mole = mass/molar mass, we can find the number of moles of SnSO4 produced.
Molar mass of SnSO4 where Sn = 118.7, S = 32, O = 16
= 118.7 + 32 + 16(4)
= 150.7 + 64
= 214.7g/mol
mole = 219.65/214.7
mole = 1.023mol
Therefore, if 2 moles of H2SO4 reacted to produce 1 mole of SnSO4
1.023 mol of SnSO4 produced will cause: 1.023 × 2/1
= 2.046moles of H2SO4 to react.
