C >> Si > Ge ≃ Sn >>> Pb Small size of carbon

Q. The tendency for catenation in the group 14 elements is in the order

$C <<< S i < G e <<< S n < P b$

$C >>> S i > G e >>> S n > P b$

$C <<< S i < G e ≃ S n < P b$

$C >>> S i > G e ≃ S n >>> P b$

$C >> S i > G e ≃ S n >>> P b$
Small size of carbon
