AIIMS 2001 Chemistry Ionization Energy Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Assertion: Ionisation potential of B (atomic no.4) is less than Be (atomic no. 5).
Reason: The first electron released from Be is of p-orbital but that from B is of s-orbital.
A
If both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
If both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
If A is true but R is false.
D
If A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option D
Detailed Explanation
The ionization potential of B is less than Be because the electron removed from B is from a higher energy p-orbital, not because of the reason given.
