The first ionisation potential of Na, Mg, Al and Si are in the order

  • Na < Mg > Al < Si

  • Na > Mg > Al > Si

  • Na < Mg < Al > Si

  • Na > Mg > Al < Si


A.

Na < Mg > Al < Si

On moving along a period, since the electron is added to the same shell, the nucleus holds the outer shell more tightly, thus size decreases. Hence, to remove an electron from outer shell, large amount of energy is required. Thus, along a period, ionisation potential increases. Al (element of III A group) however, have lower IP as compared to Mg. This is because, in case of Mg, the electron is removed from the completely filled 3s orbital. Hence, required a large amount of energy. Thus, the order of first IP of given elements is

Na < Mg > Al < Si
