One among the following is the incrorrect order of increasing ionisation energy :

A

`Cl^(-) lt Ar lt K^(+)`

B

`Au lt Ag lt Cu`

C

`Cs lt Rb lt K`

D

`K lt Ca lt Sc`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In the Cu group, the ionization energy of Ag will be less than Cu because of bigger size of Ag . However from Ag to Au the 14f electrons are added which provide very poor shielding effect.
So due to high nuclear charge, the `I.E._1` of Au is more than Ag.
`I.E._1 = Au gt Cu gt Ag`
