$II(Na) > II(Mg)$

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The electronic configuration of $Na$ is $[Ne] 3s^1$ and $Mg$ is $[Ne] 3s^2$. For the first ionization enthalpy $(I)$,$Mg$ has a stable fully-filled $s$-orbital,so $I(Mg) > I(Na)$. For the second ionization enthalpy $(II)$,$Na^+$ has the stable noble gas configuration $[Ne]$,making it very difficult to remove the second electron. Conversely,$Mg^+$ has the configuration $[Ne] 3s^1$,from which the second electron is relatively easier to remove. Therefore,$II(Na) > II(Mg)$.
