Question

The correct decreasing order of reactivity among the following is

• A. Nascent hydrogen > atomic hydrogen > molecular hydrogen
• B. Molecular hydrogen > Nascent hydrogen > atomic hydrogen
• C. Atomic hydrogen > molecular hydrogen > nascent hydrogen
• D. Atomic hydrogen > nascent hydrogen > molecular hydrogen

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Atomic hydrogen > nascent hydrogen > molecular hydrogen

Atomic hydrogen is more unstable and highly reactive than molecular hydrogen
