Question:
In second period, X has second lowest first ionization enthalpy and Y has second highest. Identify X and Y.
In second period, X has second lowest first ionization enthalpy and Y has second highest. Identify X and Y.
Show Hint
Ionization enthalpy increases across a period and decreases down a group.

- B, F
- Be, Ne
- Be, O
- C, O
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Second lowest IE: B (after Li),
Second highest IE: F (after Ne)
Therefore, X = B and Y = F.
