The second ionization potential of elements is invariably higher than first ionization potential because:

A

less than the first ionization potential

B

equal to the first ionization potential.

C

greater than the first ionization potential

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Greater then the first ionization energy because after removal of one `e^(-)`, effective nuclear charge increases.
