Question

Which is correct about ionisation potential

  1. (a) It is independent of atomic radii   
  2. It increases with increase in atomic radii  
  3. (c) It remains constant with increase in atomic radii  
  4. It decreases with increase in atomic radii  

The correct answer is: It decreases with increase in atomic radii


    We know that ionisation potential gradually decreases of moving down the group while atomic size increases as we move down the group. Hence larger the atomic size, smaller is ionisation potential.
