Which of the following relation is correct with respect to first `(I)` and second `(II)` ionization enthalpies of potassium and calcium?

A

`I_(Ca) gt II_(K)`

B

`I_(K) gt I_(Ca)`

C

`II_(Ca) gt II_(K)`

D

`II_(K) gt II_(Ca)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Second ionisation energy of potassium is greater than that of `Ca`. In case of potassium ion (i.e. `K^(+))` the electron removal from the stable inert gas configuration `(1s^(2)2s^(2)2p^(5)3s^(2)3p^(5))` requires much higher energy.
