Identify three atoms from their electron configurations. Correlate the elements to the appropriate ionization energies and atomic radii. You have determined that the electron configuration of 1s²2s²2p 3s² corresponds to the element Mg. You have determined the identity of three elements based on electron configurations. These three elements have the following three first ionization energies: 590, 738, and 999 kJ/mol The element with the electron configuration of 1s²2s²2p 3s² corresponds to which ionization energy?

Question

I have tried 999kj/mol but it's not right! I don't know what I'm doing wrong? I thought it was the highest ionization energy since the shell is full for the mg configuration? 

**Question 23 of 26** **Identify Three Atoms from Their Electron Configurations** Correlate the elements to the appropriate ionization energies and atomic radii. You have determined that the electron configuration of \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2\) corresponds to the element Mg. You have determined the identity of three elements based on electron configurations. These three elements have the following three first ionization energies: 590, 738, and 999 kJ/mol. The element with the electron configuration of \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^3\) corresponds to which ionization energy?

Expert Solution
Step 1

We are given an element with ionic configuration 1s22s22p63s2 which is magnesium (Mg).

We need to find out it's first ionization enthalpy. 

Ionisation enthalpy is the measure of energy required to remove an electron from valance shell of an atom.
