Question
The IP1, IP2, IP3, IP4, IP5 of an element are 7.1, 14.3, 34.5, 46.8, 162.2 eV respectively. Which element among the following would that be?
Answer: Option B
:
B
Among the Ionization Potentials given there is a huge jump from IP4to IP5, which shows that element attains stable inert gas configuration after losing 4 electrons.
It should be an element from 14thgroup (IVA). Among the given elements, the answer will be Si.
