  • question_answer
    The first ionisation potential of aluminium is smaller than that of magnesium because

    A) Atomic size of Al > Atomic size of Mg.

    B) Atomic size of Al < Atomic size of Mg.

    C) Al has one electron in p - orbital

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[Al(3{{s}^{2}}{{p}^{1}})\] and \[Mg(3{{s}^{2}})\]. Lower energy is required to remove\[~3{{p}^{1}}\]electron than \[3{{s}^{1}}\]electron (penetrating effect is \[s>p>d>f)\]. Secondly Mg has stable electronic configuration than Al
