The five successive energies of an element are `800, 2427, 3658, 25024` and `32824 kJ mol^(-1)` respectively. The number of valence electron is

A

`3`

B

`5`

C

`1`

D

`2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
There is a large jump from `IE_(3) (3658 kJ mol^(-1))` to `IE_(4)(25024 kJ mol^(-1))`. Therefore, it is very difficult to remove the `3rd` valence electron.
Hence, the answer is (a).
