Solution

The correct option is B $C s_{2} {C O}_{3}$
As we go down the group the stability of metal carbonates increases. The larger compounds further down require more heat than the lighter compounds in order to decompose. So $C s_{2} {C O}_{3}$ has the highest thermal stability than the other given carbonates.
Hence option A is correct.
