First ionisation enthalpy values of first four group 15 elements are given below. Choose the correct value for the element that is a main component of apatite family :
Options
- A1402 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹
- B834 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹
- C1012 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹
- D947 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹
Correct answer
C. 1012 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹
Step-by-step solution
The main component of apatite family is phosphorus. Order of IE ₁ of group 15 elements N > P > As > Sb IE of phosphorus =1012 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹ .
