Classification Of Elements And Periodicity In Properties Question 49
Question: Which of the following transitions involves maximum amount of energy [AIIMS 1992]
Options:
A) $ {{M}^{-}}(g)\to M(g) $
B) $ M(g)\to {{M}^{+}}(g) $
C) $ {{M}^{+}}(g)\to {{M}^{2+}}(g) $
D) $ {{M}^{2+}}(g)\to {{M}^{3+}}(g) $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ {{M}^{2+}}\to {{M}^{3+}} $ After the removal of $ 2{{e}^{-}} $ the nuclear charge per $ {{e}^{-}} $ increases, due to which high energy is required to remove $ 3{{e}^{-}} $ .
