The first ionisation potential of nitrogen and oxygen atoms are related as follows(a) The ionisation potential of oxygen is less than the ionisation potential of nitrogen(b) The ionisatioir-potential of nitrogen is greater than the ionisation potential of oxygen(c) The two ionisation potential values are comparable.(d) The difference between the two ionisation potential is too large.

Answer»

Correct option (a)(b)(c)

Explanation:

N7 = 1s2,2s2p3

O8 =  1s2, 2s2 2p4

Half-filled or completely filled orbitals are more stable.

Hence. IE of oxygen is less than that of nitrogen.
