MCQ
Arrange the following elements in increasing order of first ionization enthalpy:

$\mathrm{Li}, \mathrm{Be}, \mathrm{B}, \mathrm{C}, \mathrm{N}$

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  •  $\mathrm{Li}<\mathrm{B}<\mathrm{Be}<\mathrm{C}<\mathrm{N}$
  • B
     $\mathrm{Li}<\mathrm{Be}<\mathrm{C}<\mathrm{B}<\mathrm{N}$
  • C
     $\mathrm{Li}<\mathrm{Be}<\mathrm{N}<\mathrm{B}<\mathrm{C}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{Li}<\mathrm{Be}<\mathrm{B}<\mathrm{C}<\mathrm{N}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
 $\mathrm{Li}<\mathrm{B}<\mathrm{Be}<\mathrm{C}<\mathrm{N}$
a
Increasing order of first ionization enthalpy is $\mathrm{Li}<\mathrm{B}<\mathrm{Be}<\mathrm{C}<\mathrm{N}$

Element

First ionization enthalpy

$\left(\Delta_i \mathbf{H} / \mathbf{k J ~ m o l}^{-1}\right)$

 $\mathrm{Li}$ $520$
$\mathrm{Be}$ $899$
$\mathrm{B}$ $801$
$\mathrm{C}$ $1086$
$\mathrm{N}$ $1402$
