Solution

The correct options are
B $S b H_{3}$
D $B i H_{3}$
$B i H_{3}$ and $S b H_{3}$ do not have any tendency to act as ligands during complex formation.
Among the hydrides of group 15, the basic nature decreases in the order $N H_{3} > P H_{3} > A s H_{3} > S b H_{3} > B i H_{3}$
Hence, the tendency to donate lone pair of electrons and the tendency to act as ligand also decreases in the same order.

$∴$ correct options is A and D.
