Ans: As we move across the periodic table the ionization energy increases because of the increase in the effective nuclear charge and decrease of the shielding effect as more and more electrons get added in the same orbital.
Thus group 1 has lower ionization enthalpy compared to that of group 17 and also group 1 by losing one electron it will acquire the nearest noble gas electronic configuration which also contributes towards its lower ionization enthalpy.

Among isoelectronic monoatomic species, size is inversely proportional to atomic number. Hence among isoelectronic species Na? , O²? , N³? , F? (having the nearest noble gas configuration);
Order of size is Na? < F? < O²? < N³?
N³? has least atomic number hence the largest size
Electron gain enthalpy increases with electro negativity chlorine has higher electron gain enthalpy than fluorine (exception)
In isoelectronic species nuclear charge can be approximated as
Nuclear charge ≈ z / no. of electrons
Al³? Mg²? Na? F? O²? N³?
Nuclear Charge: 13/10 12/10 11/10 9/10 8/10 7/10
Minimum nuclear charge is in N³? and maximum is in Al³?
So order should be
Al³? < Mg²? < Na? < F? < O²? < N³?
(a) The element V has the highest first ionization enthalpy (? iH1) and positive electron gain enthalpy (? egH) and hence it is the least reactive element. Since inert gases have positive? egH, therefore, the element-V must be an inert gas. The values of? iH1, ? iH2 and? egH match that of He.
(b) The element II which has the least first ionization enthalpy (? iH1) and a low negative electron gain enthalpy (? egH) is the most reactive metal. The values of ? iH1, ? iH2 and? egH match that of K (potassium).
