The third ionization enthalpy is minimum for:
Options
- AC o
- BF e
- CN i
- DM n
Correct answer
B. F e
Step-by-step solution
C O − A r 3 d 7 4 s 2 F e − A r 3 d 6 4 s 2 N i − A r 3 d 8 4 s 2 M n − A r 3 d 5 4 s 1 In Fe third electron will remove from 3d and extra stability will be attained by this so ionisation energy is minimum for Fe.
