    The first ionization potential (in eV) of Be and B, respectively are:                                        [AIPMT 1998]

    A)  8.29, 9.32       

    B)       9.32, 9.32                                           

    C)  8.29, 8.29

    D)                   9.32, 8.29           

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    First ionisation potential of Be(completely filled orbital) is greater than boron due to stable configuration \[_{4}Be\text{ }=\text{ }1{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{s}^{2}}\]
    \[_{5}B\text{ }=\text{ }1{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{1}}\]
    Order of attraction of electrons towards nucleus \[2s>2p,\] so more amount of energy is required to remove the electron with 2s-orbital in comparison to 2 porbital. So ionization potential of Be is 9.32 eV and B is 8.29 eV.
