Among the elements Li, K, Ca, S and Kr, which one has the highest first ionisation enthalpy and which one has the lowest first ionisation enthalpy?
The element with highest IE1 value: Kr (Noble gas).
The element with lowest IE1 value: K (Potassium)
For each of the following pairs state which one has greater ionisation enthalpy:
(i) I, I- (ii) Br, K.
What is the relationship between the first ionisation enthaplies and metallic properties?
