Which out of LI, Na, K, Be, Mg, Ca has lowest ionization enthalpy and why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

K has lowest ionisation energy due to larger atomic size among these elements. Ther force of attraction between valence electron and nucleus is less, therefore, it can lose elector easily.
