MCQ
For $d-$ block elements the first ionization potential is of the order
  • $Zn > Fe > Cu > Cr$
  • B
    $Sc = Ti < V = Cr$
  • C
    $Zn < Cu < Ni < Co$
  • D
    $V > Cr > Mn > Fe$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$Zn > Fe > Cu > Cr$
a
The ionisation enegies increase with increase in atomic number. However, the tread is irregular among some $d-$ block element. on the basis of electronic configuration , the

$Zn\,:\,1{s^2}\,2{s^2}\,{p^6}\,3{s^2}\,{p^6}\,{d^{10}}\,4{s^2}$

$Fe\,:\,1{s^2}\,2{s^2}\,{p^6}\,3{s^2}\,{p^6}\,{d^6}\,4{s^2}$

$Cu\,:\,1{s^2}\,2{s^2}\,{p^6}\,3{s^2}\,{p^6}\,{d^{10}}\,4{s^1}$

$Cr\,:\,1{s^2}\,2{s^2}\,{p^6}\,3{s^2}\,{p^6}\,{d^5}\,4{s^1}$

$IE_1$ follows the order $:\,Zn > Fe > Cu > Cr$
