\(\mathrm{SiCl}_{4}\) is easily hydrolysed by water whereas \(\mathrm{CCl}_{4}\) is stable towards hydrolysis in water because:
1 \(\mathrm{CCl}_{4}\) exists as a molecule whereas \(\mathrm{SiCl}_{4}\) is ionic
2 The \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Cl}\) bond is stronger than the \(\mathrm{Si}-\mathrm{Cl}\) bond
3 Silicon has vacant 3d orbital available for further co-ordination with water whereas carbon has no d orbital for bonding
4 Silicon is more electropositive than carbon

Consider the oxides of group 14 elements \({\mathrm{\mathrm{\mathrm{SiO}_{2}, \mathrm{GeO}_{2}, \mathrm{SnO}_{2}, \mathrm{PbO}_{2}, \mathrm{CO}}}}\) and GeO . The amphoteric oxides are
Among the given oxides of group 14 elements, \({\mathrm{\mathrm{\mathrm{SnO}_{2}}}}\) and \({\mathrm{\mathrm{\mathrm{PbO}_{2}}}}\) are amphoteric in nature. So, the correct option is (4)
