For one of the element various successive ionization enthalpies (in 1 `mol^(-1)`) are giben below

The element is

A

Al

B

Si

C

Mg

D

P

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

From the given data, 3rd ionization enthalpy is low, 4th ionisation enthalpy is very high. So, after removal of 3 electrons the element attains stability. Hence, it is a trivalent element i.e. Al
