MCQ
Which element having following electronic configurations has minimum ionization potential
  • A
    $1{s^1}$
  • B
    $1{s^2},\,2{s^2}\,2{p^6}$
  • $1{s^2},\,2{s^2}\,2{p^6},\,3{s^1}$
  • D
    $1{s^2},\,2{s^2}\,2{p^2}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1{s^2},\,2{s^2}\,2{p^6},\,3{s^1}$
c
(c) $1{s^2}2{s^2}2{p^6}3{s^1}$.

It belongs to $IA$ group which has least ionization potential and it decreases down the group
