Vedclass · Answer

(D) The correct answer is $D$.
Allotropy is the property of an element to exist in two or more different physical forms in the same physical state.
In the carbon family (Group $14$),$C$,$Si$,$Ge$,and $Sn$ exhibit allotropy.
$C$ exists as diamond,graphite,and fullerenes.
$Si$ exists in crystalline and amorphous forms.
$Sn$ exists as grey tin ($\alpha$-$Sn$) and white tin ($\beta$-$Sn$).
$Pb$ (Lead) does not exhibit allotropy due to its metallic nature and the inert pair effect,which makes it stable in its metallic lattice structure without forming different allotropic modifications.

Which of the following elements does not show allotropy?
