With which of the following electronic configuration an atom has the lowest ionisation enthalpy ?
- A1s2 2s2 2p3
- B1s2 2s2 2p5 3s1
- C1s2 2s2 2p6
- D1s2 2s2 2p5
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
The larger the atomic size, smaller is the value of the ionisation enthalpy. Again higher the screening effect, lesser is the value of ionisation potential, So option(b) has lowest ionisation enthalpy.
