The ionisation potential for ...... nucleus will be minimum.

Answer»

`""_(7)N^(14)`
`""_(53)C_(s)^(133)`
`""_(18)Ar^(40)`
`""_(8)O^(16)`

Solution :The size of `C_(s)` from all the given nuclei will be the highest because RADIUS of nucleus `RpropA^(1/3)`where A = mass number.
Here for given nuclei, radius of `C_(s)` is highest hence at the outermost orbit, the electron are most distant from the nucleus therefore, the binding energy of such electrons is lowest. As a result, to emit electron that is energy of IONISATION is lowest so ionisation potential is minimum.
