Electronic configurations of four elements $A$,$B$,$C$,$D$ are given below:
$A$) $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1$
$B$) $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^1$
$C$) $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2$
$D$) $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^2$
The correct order of first ionization enthalpy of these elements is:

The first ionisation energies of alkaline earth metals are higher than those of the alkali metals. This is because

The first ionisation energy of lithium $(Li)$ will be

$B$ has a smaller first ionization enthalpy than $Be$. Consider the following statements:
$(I)$ It is easier to remove a $2p$ electron than a $2s$ electron.
$(II)$ The $2p$ electron of $B$ is more shielded from the nucleus by the inner core of electrons than the $2s$ electrons of $Be$.
$(III)$ The $2s$ electron has more penetration power than the $2p$ electron.
$(IV)$ The atomic radius of $B$ is more than $Be$.
(Atomic number: $B=5, Be=4$)
The correct statements are:

Consider the elements $Mg$,$Al$,$S$,$P$ and $Si$. The correct increasing order of their first ionization enthalpy is:

The third ionization energy is maximum for
