Outermost electronic configuration of 4 elements A, B, C, D A-3s2, B-3s23p1, C-3s23p3, D-3s23p4Correct order of 1st ionisation enthalpy(a) B > A > C > D(b) D > C > B > A(c) C > D > B > A(d) D > C > A > B |

Answer» (c) C > D > B > A Ionization energy increases along a period But ionisation energy of C-3s23p3 is more than D-3s23p4 as C has half-filled p subshells giving extra stability ∴ Correct order of first ionisation energy is C > D > B > A |
