MCQ
How many ionisation energies can carbon have
- A$1$
- B$2$
- ✓$4$
- D$6$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$4$
c
(c) The energy required to remove an electron from outermost orbit of an isolated gaseous atom is called $I.E.$ Now carbon has $4{e^ - }$ in outermost shell. Thus it has $4$ ionization energies.
