Vedclass · Answer

(B) $Na$ is an alkali metal and has the lowest ionisation energy due to its large atomic size. $B$,$N$,and $O$ are non-metals belonging to the same period ($2^{nd}$ period). Generally,ionisation energy increases from left to right across a period due to an increase in effective nuclear charge. However,$N$ $(1s^2 2s^2 2p^3)$ has a stable half-filled $p$-orbital configuration,which makes its ionisation energy higher than that of $O$ $(1s^2 2s^2 2p^4)$. Therefore,the correct order is $Na < B < O < N$.

Element	Ionization enthalpy $(kJ \ mol^{-1})$ $(1^{st}, 2^{nd}, 3^{rd})$
$A$	$899, 1757, 14847$
$B$	$737, 1450, 7731$

The first ionisation energy of $Na$,$B$,$N$ and $O$ atoms follows the order
