In second period of the long form of the periodic table, an element X has second lowest first ionization enthalpy and element Y has second highest first ionization enthalpy values. What are X and Y ?
Options
- AB , F
- BBe , Ne
- CBe , O
- DC , O
Correct answer
A. B , F
Step-by-step solution
The order of ionization enthalpy of elements of 2nd period in long form of periodic table is Li < B < Be < C < O < N < F < Ne . Generally, on going left to right in a period, ionization energy increases, but there are some exceptions to this. For example, Be has more ionization energy than B, due to fulfilled s-orbital. And N has more ionization energy than O due to half filled p-subshell. So,In second period of the long form of the periodic table, the element B has second lowest first i
