Question
Discuss and compare the trend in ionisation enthalpy of the elements of group1 with those of group17 elements.
Solution
As we move across the periodic table the ionization energy increases because of the increase in the effective nuclear charge and decrease of the shielding effect as more and more electrons get added in the same orbital. Thus group 1 has lower ionization enthalpy compared to that of group 17 and also group 1 by losing one electron it will acquire the nearest noble gas electronic configuration which also contributes towards its lower ionization enthalpy.
