Which of the elements show least values of ionisation energies within their periods?

A

Alkaline earth

B

Alkali metals

C

Noble gases

D

Chalcogens

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Due to large size of alkali metals, it is easy to remove an electron from its valence shell. Therefore alkali metals have least value of ionization cnergy within the periods.
