Solution

The correct option is A $C H_{4}$
$B_{2} H_{6}$ is electron deficient hydride.
$H_{2} O$ and $N H_{3}$ are electron rich hydrides since we have more number of electrons compared to the number of electrons required to form all the covalent bonds.
$C H_{4}$ is electrons precise hydride since, there are exact number of electrons to form normal covalent bonds for completing octet.
