Classification Of Elements And Periodicity In Properties Question 7

Question 7 - 31 January - Shift 2

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)

Assertion (A) : The first ionization enthalpy of $3 d$ series elements is more than that of group 2 metals

Reason (R) : In 3d series of elements successive filling of d-orbitals takes place.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

(1) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of $(\mathbf{A})$

(2) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

(3) (A) is false but ( $\mathbf{R})$ is true

(4) (A) is true but (R) is false

Show Answer

Answer: (1)

Solution:

Formula: Ionization energy

From Sc to Mn ionization energy is less than that of $Mg$.

For 3d series :

$Sc$ $Ti$ $V$ $Cr$ $Mn$
$IE$
$(KJ / mol)$
631 656 650 653 717
mathong $Fe$ $Co$ $Ni$ $Cu$ $Zn$
$IE$
$(KJ / mol)$
762 758 736 745 906

For $2^{\text{nd }}$ Group

$Be$ $Mg$ $Ca$ $Sr$ $Ba$ $Ra$
$IE$
$(KJ / mol)$
631 656 650 653 717 762
